| | USATODAY.com - 'Runaway Jury,' classics released (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21) |
 | | Screenwriter Walter Bernstein, director Martin Ritt and several of the movie's stars (including Zero Mostel, who is great as a comic named Hecky) were fllisted in real life so there's an element of "gotcha!" here. |
 | | The movie is full of secret meetings, windy speeches and fleeting sack time (juror John Cusack and Rachel Weisz) plus ransacks, arson, plot twists and even nips of hooch in the jury room. |
 | | For a primer on Sr., The Douglas Fairbanks Collection (Kino, unrated, $100) offers reissues of The Mark of Zorro (1920) with Don Q, Son of Zorro (1925); The Three Musketeers (1921); The Black Pirate (1926, in color); a remastered Robin Hood (1922); and the DVD premiere of The Thief of Bagdad (1924). |
