DVD Release List - 9/23/08
New music isn't the only media to be released on Tuesdays; it's unveiling day for new DVDs as well…
This week, fans of classic movies should be excited to see the long-awaited Blu-Ray debut of Francis Ford Coppola's Godfather trilogy, newly restored by master-preservationist Robert A. Harris. Also available: a new double-disc special edition of L.A. Confidential with fresh featurettes and a cast commentary moderated by critic Andrew Sarris; a bevy of TV sets (most notably the Emmy-winning Samantha Who? and Friday The 13th–The Series); and some treasures for devotees of world cinema (including a set of Aki Kaurismäki films from Criterion's Eclipse line, a set of films by Scottish indie-film legend Bill Douglas, and a collection of Ken Russell's groundbreaking early work for the BBC).
Oh, and Sex And The City.
