Writer-directors Jay (L) and Mark (R) Duplass flank actress Judy Greer at the home video release reception for the Duplass’ “Jeff Who Lives at Home.” The fun and festive reception for the home video release of Jay and Mark Duplass’ Jeff Who Lives at Home was held at Santa Monica’s Basement Tavern, located inside [...] Ok, this is the most exciting Blu-ray/DVD release I have seen in a while. Let me see if I can put into words how much I love this film: This was the first laser disc I bought. When I was a teen, I watched it every time it was on TV (rarely in those early [...] In what I plan on making a regular feature, here are a few upcoming video releases that I am looking forward to. They aren’t full reviews, because I don’t have my hands on copies (yet) but I know (or know of) the source material and I am damn excited to see them all!

It’s too bad the DVD lacks the key extras that could make it a classic home video buy. That said, if enough people buy it, maybe the Criterion Collection will do it some justice! [...] One of the those “perfect little films” that you hear about, Roger Mitchell’s Venus will, hopefully, find a larger audience on DVD than it did in the theaters. Honestly, there is little, if anything, wrong with this little gem…Venus stars the never better Peter O’Toole… alongside the delightful newcomer Jodie Whittaker, a wonderfully cranky Leslie Phillips, Richard Griffiths, and the incomparable Vanessa Redgrave.
