DVD Reviews of Gospel According To Harry
DVD Review: Gospel According to Harry
Summary: 3 Stars
I got a different message from the movie than was advertised. It seemed to me that it was simply a stylized version of the meaningless life that many people live. I would have prefered that the sexal intercourse scene had not been included. We already had the message that all was not perfect in that area. If not for that, I would have shared it with my kids.DVD Review: Review foe DVD

I only bought this because I love Viggo Mortensen, but it is a strange movie and I have watched it twice and still don't get it. But does not stop me from buying more of his stuff. He's easy on the eyes.DVD Review: Man and Woman in the Dunes
Summary: 3 Stars
Director Lech Majewski titles each scene with a Biblical word in his very surreal movie set in the California desert observing a couple whose marriage is disentigrating like a sand castle on a beach. Religious allegory abounds here-the creator is a strong black man, there is an obligatory crucifixion, etc.
Made in 1994, this is the sort of movie a serious fangirl might want to ferret out! Typical early Viggo choice-edgy, intelligent, witty script and other excellent actors. However, I bet it didn't get much of a run in the theatres and if Mr. Mortensen hadn't gone on to play Aargorn, I doubt it would have ever been released on DVD!
Description of Gospel According To Harry
Combining the theatrical surrealism of Samuel Beckett and Eugene Ionesco, the pop-art playfulness of Richard Lester, scathing social critique, genuine pathos and the mind-boggling imagery for which writer-director Lech Majewski (The Garden of Earthly Delights) is renowned, Gospel According to Harry is a wholly original cinematic tour de force. Years before the Lord of the Rings trilogy catapulted him to international superstardom, Viggo Mortensen (Eastern Promises, A History of Violence) played Wes, a young husband locked in co-dependent discontent with his beautiful and needy wife Karen (Jennifer Rubin The Doors, Nightmare On Elm Street III). Their future prospects as barren as the sun-bleached dunes that are the surreal setting for their one room existence, Wes and Karen go through the dehumanizing motions of a modern life in which happiness is as ephemeral and elusive as the grains of sand beneath their feet. Boasting a remarkable cast, including 60 s British film icon Rita Tushingham (Doctor Zhivago, The Knack and How to Get It), haunting visuals, and incisive wit, Gospel According to Harry which was produced for David Lynch s Propaganda Films is at last ready for discovery, available here for the first time on DVD or any format.Special Features:
