New on DVD and Blu-Ray

Not a great week for new releases, with the best ones of the bunch (other than Game of Thrones, which I refuse to acknowledge as anything besides a killer joke in Logan Lucky) being the latest Steve Coogan-Rob Brydon vehicle The Trip to Spain and Kathryn Bigelow’s genuinely problematic Detroit. And it’s not too much better of a week for catalog titles either, although there are some big titles there, namely Criterion’s release of Alexander Payne’s Election (coming just in time for Payne’s worst movie to premiere) and upgrades of two documentaries, Barbet Schroeder’s General Idi Amin Dada and D.A. Pennebaker’s Monterey Pop. There’s also another of Cohen’s Merchant-Ivory restorations, this time for Heat and Dust, a seasonally-appropriate release of Carroll Ballard’s film of The Nutcracker, and an Arrow release of that other Mike Hodges-Michael Caine movie, Pulp.
