DVD & Blu-ray Release Report, Ralph Tribbey

Mill Creek Entertainment has done it again!!

Another comedy series in its entirety will be heading home as both DVD and Blu-ray complete collections. In recent weeks, The Mindy Project: The Complete Series (Jan. 21), starring Mindy Kaling, and the Unspeakable Kimmy Schmidt: The Complete Series (Feb. 04), with Ellie Kemper, were announced for release … they will now be joined on Apr. 21 by 30 Rock The Complete Series.

All 138 episodes from the seven broadcast seasons are included in the 20-disc Blu-ray collection and the 16-disc DVD set.

Of note, 30 Rock received a whopping 103 Emmy Awards nominations (across all categories), winning three times for Outstanding Comedy Series … individual Emmy wins were for Alec Baldwin (Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series, 2008, 2009), Tina Fey (Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series, 2008), Tim Conway (Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series, 2008) and Elaine Stritch (Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series, 2007). During the show’s seven broadcast seasons it collected a total of 16 Emmy Awards.

30 Rock The Complete Series is just the first April announcement … stay tuned for more priced-to-collect DVD and Blu-ray news from Mill Creek Entertainment that will be ready for consumers to enjoy during the month of April.

Oscilloscope Laboratories Picks Mar. 24 For The Release Of DVD And Blu-ray Editions Of Director Ben Mullinkosson's Don't Be A Dick About It

A documentary or a clever cinéma vérité comedy? That’s the question that comes to mind with documentary filmmaker Ben Mullinkosson’s laugh-out-loud film festival favorite, Don’t be a Dick About It.

Oscilloscope Laboratories announced this past week that both DVD and Blu-ray editions will be available for viewing enjoyment on Mar. 24.

The story, simple and direct, follows the adventures of brothers Peter and Matthew Mullin. Unlike, oh say, Napoleon Dynamite, Peter and Matthew are real characters, but their interactions captured on film by Ben Mullinkosson are every bit as funny and even surreal as those depicted in Napoleon Dynamite.

Peter is the older of the two and we know from the get-go that there is something just a little off about him. This will be revealed late in the film, but not here … and in the end it really doesn’t matter.

One thing that we do know about Peter is that he is a big fan of the reality TV series, Survivor, and takes great pleasure in reliving key moments from the latest episode that he has just viewed.

His brother, Matthew, is the Laurel to Peter’s Hardy, and is often horrified at the behavior of his brother in public settings. As a side story for Matthew, his mother is working hard to help him overcome his fear of dogs (cynophobia) … Peter is not helpful. Indeed, there is one scene where Matthew is frozen in fear at the approach of a barking dog (fence between them) — with Peter by his side — the comic timing of Peter is priceless.

If you are looking for some deeper meaning to Mullinkosson’s documentary, look elsewhere. Don’t be a Dick About It is pure entertainment drawn from real life.

Bonus features include a deleted scene titled “C is for Cake” and Ben Mullinkosson’s 2014 short film, Gnarly in Pink.

MVD Entertainment Group Selects Apr. 14 For The DVD Release of Director Alex Segal's The Crucible Starring George C. Scott And Colleen Dewhurst

MVD Entertainment Group announced this past week that the 1967 Emmy-nominated broadcast of Arthur Miller’s 1953 four-act stage play, The Crucible, will be making its DVD debut on Apr. 14.

This live broadcast (or perhaps kinescope) of Miller’s tale about the Salem witch trials stars George C. Scott as the doomed John Proctor (he was nominated for an Emmy for his performance), Colleen Dewhurst as his wife, Elizabeth (Dewhurst was also nominated for an Emmy), Tuesday Weld as the duplicitous Abigail Williams, plus Henry Jones as the evil Reverend Samuel Parris, Thayer David as the corrupt Thomas Putnam and Fritz Weaver as the Reverend John Hale, who suffers a crisis of conscience during the trial and tries to undo the damage that he has done.

Alex Segal handled the direction and was nominated for Best Direction. During the 1950s and 60s, Segal specialized in bringing drama works to television … he was nominated for Emmy Award five times, winning in 1966 for his adaptation of another Arthur Miller play, Death of a Salesman.

Icarus Films Preps Two New DVD Releases For March • Celebration (Mar. 17) And Time Thieves (Mar. 10)

Icarus Films will be teaming up with the KimStim Collection on Mar. 17 for the DVD rollout of French documentary filmmaker Olivier Meyrou’s Celebration.

Meyrou was given access to the world of fashion icon Yves Saint Laurent and spent three years documenting the process of — and the preparation for — his final show. Once Celebration was finally completed, it was screened at the 2007 Berlin Film Festival … and then banned!!

Yes, forcibly withdrawn from circulation by Yves Saint Laurent’s business partner and long-time love interest, Pierre Berge (they would have a same-sex civil union ceremony just days before Yves Saint Laurent succumbed to brain cancer). It is reported that he saw the film at the Berlin Film Festival screening as was shocked by the frail appearance of his friend … no longer the jet-setter, vibrant, but in decline, near the end and “not quite all there” (Yves Saint Laurent would pass the following year).

From 2007 until 2015, Celebration remained in limbo. Perhaps faced with his own mortality, Pierre Berge (who died in 2017) finally relented and the film was allowed to be released in France in 2018 … various film festival dates quickly followed and in early October of 2019 the film received a very limited arthouse run in the domestic marketplace.

For the record, the ARR for Celebration works out to 165 days.

For fashion fans, French-language film enthusiasts, the curious and those who followed the career of the legendary haute couture designer Yves Saint Laurent, Celebration is a must-see experience.

Celebration is presented in French with English subtitles.

Icarus Films has also added to the release calendar this past week documentary filmmaker Cosima Dannoritzer’s provocative Time Thieves … it will be released on DVD on Mar. 10.

Known for her work about ecology and technology (If Rubbish Could Speak, The Light Bulb Conspiracy, The E-Waste Tragedy), Dannoritzer was literally gobstruck one day when glancing through her date book … she called it “the dictatorship of the clock in my life” and set about to make a film on how businesses have turned time, like water, or oil, or energy into a commodity.

She then began a globe-trotting quest to interview politicians, union officials, consultants, academics and business leaders on the subject of time. She shows examples of how businesses have subtly (or not so subtly) transferred work to the consumer — printing your own airline boarding passes, self-check-out stands and more.

Among those interviewed are mathematician Spencer Greenberg, Marie-Anne Dujarier (Sociologist, La Sorbonne, Paris), Magali Combal (time management consultant), Klaus Müller of the Federation of German Consumer Organisations, Jawad Qasrawi (Hazards Magazine) and more.

Time Thieves is presented in multiple languages and comes with English subtitles where appropriate.

Paramount Home Media Tabs Feb. 25 For The DVD Debut Of Director Ron Scalpello's The Corrupted

Paramount Home Media Distribution announced this past week that director Ron Scalpello’s crime thriller, The Corrupted, starring Sam Claflin (The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, The Huntsman: Winter's War, etc.) and Timothy Spall, will be making its way to DVD on Feb. 25.

As an ex-con, the last thing you want to do is to get involved with crime and violence, but that’s exactly what Liam (Claflin) must do to untangle his brother (played by his actual brother, Joe Claflin) and his involvement with crooked East London developer Clifford Cullen (Small).

Cullen, as we learn in an opening sequence, was responsible for the murder of Liam’s father when he, Liam, was a child … years after now passed, but the desire for revenge remains.

Meanwhile, DS Neil Beckett (Noel Clarke — Brotherhood, The Anomaly) is out to bring Cullen down and has been methodically putting the pieces of his criminal activity together … the question is, will Liam and his brother be collateral damage.

In other release news from Paramount Home Media this week, Mar. 20 will see the release of a Mondo X SteelBook 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray Combo Pack edition of director John Krasinski’s A Quiet Place.

Bonus features include a trio of production featurettes — “Creating the Quiet,” “The Sound of Darkness” and “A Reason for Silence.”
