This review is from: International Cinema Collection (A Very Long Engagement / Day for Night / The Damned / Gloomy Sunday / Death in Venice) (DVD)

This international box set brings together five wonderful, beautiful, emotionally filling and often uplifting European movies in their complete Warner Brothers' releases. Two are French, one German, and two Italian.
4 of the 5 have extensive extras. All are widescreen. All are 'matted' except Venice, which is 'letterbox'. Four (not Engagement) are labeled 'dual-layer format.' Very Long Engagement has a second disk of extras; Gloomy Sunday has no extras. Dirk Bogard is directed by Luchino Visconti in two films, Venice and Damned.

Of the five, I'd seen only Day for Night, and it holds up warmly as about love and movies. Two others I'd heard of, Engagement and Venice, both compelling beautiful morose stories of remote love. The final two I'd never heard of, but the value of buying this box set is being able to see these without a lot of cost. Gloomy Sunday is not gloomy at all, it's a wonderful evocative moody misty movie. It, and The Damned, were revelations: one, of love, the other, of power and a failure of integrity. These five are great.
