Negative Positive
Title: Mainstream Cronenberg
Review: David Cronenberg (The Fly (Two-Disc Collector's Edition),Videodrome - Criterion Collection) is an artful and masterful director. There's no denying it. The man behind such films asDead Ringers - Criterion Collection,Naked Lunch - Criterion CollectionandShiverscomes with this film, a stark difference from his fist films of the century.A History of Violence is about a man who, after becoming a local hero, is hounded by a couple of mobsters who believe he is someone else.The strength in this movie isn't the script alone, it's the directing of one David Cronenberg. A movie that you should see, maybe it'll spark your interest in the often overlooked David Cronenberg.The DVD includes a commentary from the director, a few featurettes going over every aspect of the filmmaking, a "Too Commercial for Cannes" feature, a deleted scene, and the behind the scenes of that deleted scenes.Highly recommended.
