selected new relases for 3/23

today we have tons, TONS I SAY, of excellent new releases that are bound to excite and intrigue madison's film-loving masses. in all seriousness, the scuttlebutt around the store is that this is the heftiest bunch of flicks we've ever had in the history of four star.

if you have a blu-ray player (see how i made the text BLUE?), prepare for us to make your week with a bunch of new and old criterions as well as some other high-def surprises (african queen!) coming at you from the new release wall.

point your interweb browsers over to the four star site for a more complete listing of the good stuff we have coming out starting at midnight tonight.

sorry for any formatting issues. the NEW and IMPROVED blogger interface leaves a LOT to be desired.
