New Release Tuesday

A cover-up and witch hunt occurs after a politician accidentally kills his mistress.  This was a great action thriller back when Kevin Costner was a rising star and seems to be only remembered for its whoopee scene in the back of a limo.  If you have not seen this check it out, you will not believe the twist.

A down-and-out American boxer becomes involved in a feud between two Japanese brothers.  I have never seen this but I remember the Scott Glenn poster.  This was directed by the late, great John Frankenheimer and was co-written by John Sayles.  Also stars Toshiro Mifune of Asian cinema greatness like the Seven Samurai.  I got this on order and cannot wait to check this out.

The Tramp (Chaplin) cares for an abandoned child, but events put that relationship in jeopardy.  I cannot say if I have ever seen a whole Charlie Chaplin movie but this is regarded as one of his finest and is new from Criterion.

Cool looking prison movie pack for $7.  That’s well worth it and you have to love Mill Creek for these bundle releases.
