Movie Reviews

WWII × 9
Annie Van Auken | Planet Earth | 08/04/2008
(3 out of 5 stars)

"The majority of the movies in the WWII ACTION DVD set are European-made, one of which being particularly outstanding: "In Which We Serve" is written and directed by Noel Coward; he also stars (co-director is David Lean). It's a story told in flashback of a British destroyer, its sinking and the survivors who cling to a life raft. There's also three war-era American films, and one Philippino quickie featuring an ex-football player.

ST. CLAIR DVD multi-packs are reasonably priced, and offer fine quality video/audio transfers of unrestored public domain material. Discs are single-side recorded, plastic storage cases fairly sturdy, content details appear on box's back cover and most DVDs include bonus items.
