I posted earlier about how I thought Ali Selim's Sweet Land was last year's best film not to be nominated for an Oscar.
The independently produced and distributed film scored a DVD distribution deal with Fox, and the DVD hits stores today.The film, starring Elizabeth Reaser (left) and Tim Guinee, was met with near-universal critical acclaim and won Selim the Best First Feature award at the Independent Spirit Awards. On the other hand, a reviewer in this week's Entertainment Weekly gives the DVD a C-plus, calling it "a treacly story" (and, in the same issue, Red Dawn gets a B).
Check out Sweet Land on DVD and decide for yourself.
