Black Robe (30th Anniversary Edition)

Got the German Bluray version, it’s the best video quality I’ve seen compared to both of the prior DVD versions (although the remastered DVD is a huge step up), and I didn’t have to switch to Region 2 settings on my universal Bluray player to watch it, which suggests that the German Bluray is actually all region. The best part was that the in-movie subtitles when they’re speaking native languages still show up in English, not in German, so if you’re considering the Bluray upgrade go for it.

This is a classic film directed by the great Bruce Beresford. Forget the older DVD which looked terrible. This is the one to get. The new 30th Anniversary Edition restoration looks fantastic and looks like Blu-Ray quality.

Raw, gritty under-rated gem.Dances with wolves -unromanticised edition. No punch are spared in the arguably more realistic and haunting tale of a Jesuit priests' journey to what could only be the heart of darkness at the time. A sobering flip-side, antidote to the warm emotive pastiches' of costners (deservedly) well praised epic. It's short, sparce and rather grim, but also more visceral with it's brutality in parts. Enjoy : ) .

Excellent film interpretation of a great book, one of Brian Moore’s best. The film stays true to the book in most areas but inevitably cannot quite capture the gritty and physically exhausting life the Indians lead nor the attempt of the missionary to adapt to it.

It is always nice to see a very well made movie concerning Native Americans, and it doesn't make things worse that Black Robe takes Place in a place and time that seldom is treated. Nice setting, great acting and engaging story.
