1. Brief Encounter: David Lean Directs Noël Coward (Criterion Collection) (1946)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: Brief Encounter provides an early look at the career of David Lean, although one won't find any of the scope or grandeur of his later films here. Instead, Encounter remains a very small character piece that’s too mushy and sentimental for my liking. The DVD provides solid picture and audio along with a fairly nice roster of supplements. While the movie d

2. A Passage To India: Collector's Edition (1984)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: As much as I admire David Lean, I can’t find much good to say about his final film, 1984’s A Passage to India. Too long and too dull, it consists of some lovely images without enough substance to maintain our interest ... I feel pleased with this release but don’t care for the movie itself. Starring Judy Davis, Victor Banerjee. Sony, $24.96, 4/15/2008.

3. Brief Encounter: Criterion Collection [Blu-Ray] (1946)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: Brief Encounter provides an early look at the career of David Lean, although one won't find any of the scope or grandeur of his later films here. Instead, Encounter remains a very small character piece that’s too mushy and sentimental for my liking. Starring Celia Johnson, Trevor Howard. Criterion, $39.95, 4/26/2016.

4. Ryan's Daughter: Special Edition (1970)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: Since I count Lawrence of Arabia as one of my favorite films, it comes as a disappointment to find a David Lean flick as dull as Ryan’s Daughter. Lovely to look at but bloated and thin, the movie runs too long and offers far too little interesting material. Starring Robert Mitchum, Trevor Howard. Warner, $26.98, 2/7/2006.

7. Doctor Zhivago [Blu-Ray] (1965)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: (I) felt pleased with the Blu-ray. It boasted excellent visuals, solid audio and a generally nice complement of supplements. This is a top-notch release, and the picture quality was a big step up over the DVD. However, movie score fans will still want to hold onto the 2001 package; it includes an isolated score that goes missing here. That’s too bad, but

8. Lawrence of Arabia [Blu-Ray] (1962)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: The plaudits Lawrence of Arabia has received over the years are completely appropriate, as this stunning epic fully deserves as much praise as can be heaped upon it. Lawrence is an amazing piece of work that never fails to entertain and delight. As for the Blu-ray, it mixes nearly immaculate visuals, solid audio and a generally positive set of supplement

9. Lawrence of Arabia: Collector's Edition (1962)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: On its own, this Collector’s Edition of Lawrence of Arabia stands as the film’s best release to date. It mixes a few good extras with the high quality movie presentation found on the Superbit DVD. Unfortunately, big Lawrence fans who own the original 2001 disc won’t be able to replace it. While the 2008 disc looks much better than that version, it drops
