The problem with best-of DVD collections is that they usually include so much more than you need — or even want. But The Elia Kazan Collection (20th Century Fox DVD ), which includes 15 Kazan treasures selected by Martin Scorsese, is lean, mean and essential.

Black Swan Music Video Reaches Out to Fans of Horror, Clubbing

This new music video for Black Swan makes you suspect that Fox Searchlight is still nervous about the “ballet-is-for-old-rich-people” stigma. It seemed like the positive buzz, the great first trailer and news of a lesbian kiss would be enough, but they really pulled out the stops here. For horror and suspense junkies, the abrupt, strobe-edited interludes feature violence, psychosis and the some of the creepiest imagery in an American trailer. Ah, and then for cosmopolitan 18-24 demographic, the other half of the video takes place in a hip dance club with plenty of sensual embraces. Plus, for the old rich people, there’s ballet. Black Swan : Finally a movie for everyone.

What If The Expendables Were a Chick Flick?

Sylvester Stallone shrewdly put together an all-star team of ’80s action stars as the main gimmick behind this year’s The Expendables (out this week on DVD from Lionsgate), but while it’s nice that the movie gave the likes of Dolph Lundgren the chance to be in a film that played in U.S. theaters before going to home video, what about the unsung leading ladies of the Reagan years? Here’s hoping some enterprising filmmaker can come up with a way to get these ’80s ladies back on the big screen.
