With
the American Film Institute's 2007 top 100 movies list now
out, I'd encourage you to check out a couple of their choices.
If you haven't yet seen it, Citizen
Kane is the compelling story of the rise and fall of a
media mogul, and an absolute must in any serious movie collection.
Rated the No.1 American movie of all time it still plays superbly.
The black and white picture for this 1941 classic looks fantastic
in the latest editions and there are loads of fascinating
background extras on the making of this justfiably revered
film.
Also
worth checking out is this year's biggest mover on the list
- The Searchers - which
bounded from No. 95 to No. 12! Arguably the greatest film
made by John Wayne, the project teamed him in 1956 with his
favourite director, the legendary John Ford, in an epic wild
west tale of revenge and redemption. The remastered picture
is superb and there are lots of documentaries and extra features
in the two-disc edition.
