ROUND UP
Latvian animated film FLOW (4K/Blu-ray/DVD, 30 June) won a Golden Globe. Free of dialogue, it follows a black cat trying to survive in a human-free landscape; when a flood comes, it hops on board a sailboat, journeying through submerged forest and city. We said: “It’s a stimulating journey, motored by suggestions rather than slogans”. Extras include a 58-minute doc, an animatic version, a director Q&A and two shorts. Final Destination fans should dig Longlegs director Osgood Perkins’s latest. Expanding upon a Stephen King story, THE MONKEY (Blu-ray/DVD, out now) centres on a sinister toy that causes a horrific death every time its key is wound. We said: “A jump-filled, guts-splattered thrill-ride… never short of funny moments.” Bonuses: 11 minutes of featurettes. Disney’s latest live-action remake SNOW WHITE (4K/Blu-ray/DVD, 30 June) was mired in controversy for its treatment of both the romance element and the seven dwarves. We said: “While Disney’s decision-making may be dubious, director Marc Webb knows how to create a pacy, charming kids’ film.” Extras: a sing-along version, 30 minutes of featurettes; deleted scenes; bloopers. In THE WOMAN IN THE YARD (Blu-ray/DVD, 30 June), a veiled figure turns up outside the farmhouse of a mother and kids who recently lost the father in a car crash. We said: “The story is so slight as to essentially be a short film.” Bonuses: two featurettes (12 minutes). Finally, the latest TV box set is FALLOUT Season One (4K/Blu-ray/DVD, 7 July).
