New on DVD
CAROLINE: Yay! “Juno” is out on DVD today. I’ve actually seen it twice, but for those who haven’t yet, it’ll be a great rental.
RYAN: This was such a sweet movie… and our own Ellen Page is becoming a movie star! She’s so brilliant in “Smart People,” which is out in theaters now.
CAROLINE: Interestingly, she filmed “Smart People” before “Juno.” The “Juno” DVD has lots of fun extras like deleted scenes, a gag reel, screen tests and audio commentary from the director Jason Reitman.
RYAN: There’s also a 2-disc special edition with extra features.
CAROLINE: I also want to mention “Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead,” a Sydney Lumet film that’s out on DVD today too. It was such a good movie, and I think we both agree that it didn’t get enough acknowledgment last year.
RYAN: Absolutely! Philip Seymour Hoffman is unbelievably good in this movie. Sadly for you though, an old man farted in your face when we saw this at the Angelika.
RYAN: That Ryan Gosling is hot.
CAROLINE: Not so much in this movie. He has funky facial hair and he’s in love with a silicone sex doll. It’s really random and bizarre, but funny; almost uncomfortably so.
RYAN: Love the premise! He and that Emily Mortimer are both so good. If you like indie flicks, definitely don’t miss this.
