3 Silent Classics by Josef von Sternberg [Criterion Collection] [Blu-ray]
Why are you reading this review? You clicked on this item. You probably already know what it is.
Josef von Sternberg was a brilliant director. 3 Classic films here on Blu-ray? You KNOW you need to own them. So what if they are silent films. Get Classy. Impress your friends. Annoy hipsters. UNDERWORLD is a great GANGSTER film (not a vampire movie). The Last Command is a ironic farce. The Docks of New York predates On the Waterfront by a few years. Please buy this set. It will make your Blu-ray collection look smart.
