Blu-Ray Review: ‘People on Sunday’ Foreshadows Independent Cinema
Submitted by mattmovieman on July 7, 2011 - 7:21amCHICAGO – One of the most important home entertainment releases of the year is Criterion’s high-definition restoration of Robert Siodmak and Edgar G. Ulmer’s “People on Sunday,” an extraordinary filmic landmark from 1930 that is a must-see for any self-respecting cinephile. Watching it for the first time, I felt like I was witnessing nothing less than the birth of independent cinema.
