I don’t normally give this space over to reviewing DVDs, but this new release is something of an historic event.
It was only with the idea of writing this column that I sat through all three versions of The Maltese Falcon in less than 24 hours. For purposes of comparing and contrasting the trio, that’s probably the way to go. For purposes of enertainment, I’d suggest spreading them out a little more.
The topics of “what frightens you” (vice presidential candidates aside) and “have you really ever been scared by a movie” came up in conversation last week and I decided to explore it a bit, and at the same time put out a call to readers to offer their own answers.
