How Green Was My Valley – John Ford is known for his Westerns but this is one of his dramas and more notably known for beating Citizen Kane for Best Picture in 1942.



The Man Who Knew Too Much (1934)– A Hitchcock classic. He liked it so much he remade into another classic in 1956

Hannah and Her Sisters – Another Woody Allen movie this one from 1986 that won Michael Caine a Best Supporting Actor nomination.




Wuthering Heights (1939)- 1939 is considered one of the greatest years for movies. This is one of the movies that helps 1939 get that reputation.



Gentleman’s Agreement – A Best Picture winner from 1947 the movie explores anti-Semitism in the late 40’s. A rare Best Picture winner that had a social agenda.



Best Years of Our Lives – And the list of Best Picture winners getting released on Blu-Ray grows. This is one of the best WWII films around.



There are a few documentaries being released today also.

Runaway Slave – I have to admit I never heard of this one before but it takes a look at why African Americans vote Democratic when it was the Republicans that freed the slaves. It has Glenn Beck, Andrew Breibart, and Herman Caine as commentators.



Detropia – Another documentary that has a focus on African Americans in America. This movie played at the Milwaukee Film Festival and has gotten high praise. It’s focus is on the rise and fall of Detroit and the people that live there. With no talking head the movie is told through interviews with residents.



The Other Dream Team – The story of the Lithuania Olympic Basketball Team in 1992

5 Broken Cameras – And another documentary from the Milwaukee Film Fest and ended up getting an Oscar Nomination for Best Documentary. The movie is about the conflict in Palestine.

New Home Movie Releases 1/8/13

Lots of releases today and with the Oscar nominations on Thursday there are a few connections. So let’s get right into it.


Compliance- my favorite movie of last year. It only got limited release and not many people saw it but I highly recommend getting it. Will hopefully get a Best Supporting Actress Nomination for Ann Dowd



Dredd 3D – Another version of Judge Dredd this time without Sylvester Stallone. It got some positive reviews.



Frankenweenie- The new Tim Burton stop motion animation movie. Will likely get an Oscar Nomination for Best Animated Feature



House at the End of the Street – Another horror remake. Jennifer Lawrence will probably get an Oscar nomination but not for this movie.



Stolen – A Nicolas Cage movie that looks like so many other movies.



Hit and Run – A large cast of people in this one but got lost with other summer movies. It actually looked pretty good. Bradley Cooper is one of the costars and will probably get an Oscar nomination but not for this movie.



Seal Team Six: The Raid on Osama Bin Laden- The made for TV movie is getting its release before the probably Oscar nominee Zero Dark Thirty comes out on Friday which is about the same topic.



Game Change- The HBO movie about Sarah Palin with some great performances.



The Jazz Singer (1927)- The first movie with sound. A piece of Hollywood history. Worth having in your collection for that reason.

Grand Hotel – Best Picture 1932
