New DVD Releases: American Gangster, Margot at the Wedding and More
The movie fell under the radar to some degree during its initial theatrical run, partially because it was/is so long. But it has intense performances from Washington and Crowe, bit players as diverse as the RZA and Chiwetel Ejiofor (who was the bougie producer in Talk to Me), and a seventies style and depth to it that shouldn't be missed.--Rebecca Onion
Redacted
Brian De Palma's lo-fi Iraq War drama had an incredibly short theatrical run, so it'll be interesting to see how well it does on DVD. Extras include refugee interviews, a photo gallery and a behind-the-scenes featurette. [Read our review of Redacted]
Margot at the Wedding
Noah Baumbach's latest dysfunctional family dramedy gets a pretty light DVD treatment. Extras include theatrical trailers (are those really extras?) and a featurette titled "A Conversation With Noah Baumbach and Jennifer Jason Leigh". [Read our review of Margot at the Wedding]
