    WOW
  

*by D***S on Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2011*

I recieved my Sabu dvds today and have just finished watching JUNGLE BOOK. I've gotta say, WOW! I hadn't seen the film in 35 years. I remembered it being a good film, But obviously I saw only a muddy, dull print of it, like we all have, because that is all that was available until now. Gods bless Criterion for bringing us a clear, brilliant print because it is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. The colors are a revelation. The sets are just plain beautiful. And Sabu gives a stunning performance; far better than his more famous role in THE THIEF OF BAGHDAD.  I wasn't going to go into detail here because it is late as I write, but I have to say a word about the sets. Sets and backlots and soundstages are part of what I love about classic films. I don't need the sets to be realistic and fool me into thinking that the actors are in a real place. All I need from sets is that they be well made and beautiful. In fact I like sets that are obviously sets. I enjoy the pretense and the artificiality, as long as it succeeds in creating an illusion and an atmosphere. (I especially enjoy the wrinkled backdrops of angry sky in FRANKENSTEIN, reminding us that it is all make believe.) The sets in JUNGLE BOOK are just amazing. I would love to see a breakdown of how they accomplished what they did. They do not create a real jungle but a fantasy jungle; a jungle of a child's imagining. More beautiful than any merely actual jungle could ever be, I will be freeze-framing this film for the rest of my life, just to look at that amazing scenery and try to figure out what is real tree and what is not, what is physical set and what is backdrop or painting on glass, or matte process. But for all the artificiality, they succeed in creating a jungle that you can almost smell. I really hope that Criterion's print is good enough to justify a blu-ray release sometime in the future. That would be somethin'.  I haven't watched the other two films yet, but even if they are duds, I got my money's worth in JUNGLE BOOK.

    A SET TO TREASURE
  

*by A***A on Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2015*

I have been a Kipling fan since I learned to read, and a Sabu fan from childhood.  I adore "The Jungle Book" and "Black Narcissus".  But now, I have acquired Sabu's first two films, and watched them from the perspective of an old and perhaps over-educated retired professor, I have a very different take.  "The Elephant Boy", which is an ideal boy's story, can offend some with the not quite well disguised homoeroticism of certain scenes, but worse,a basic plot--the capturing of wild elephants for perpetual servitude which, quite frankly, turned me off. "The Drum" made me sit up and stare at the screen.  Here, in glorious technicolor and Raymond Massey playing an evil Arab, I found none other than the urground for the current political situation in Irak, Iran, Syria, Afghanistan.  And even the beginnings of ISIL. "The Jungle Book" keeps its everlasting spell on my affections.  The restoration is just what one wishes for, the set is impeccable, and I will treasure it.

    Acquainted With One Classic, and Ready to Discover Two More!
  

*by M***H on Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2011*

The first time I saw sabu was in "The Thief of Baghdad" and I directly became curious to watch other movies starring this little actor. Later I purchased "The Jungle Book" and I was impressed by the story, by the effects and by sabu's acting, but the problem was in the DVD transfer which was extremely poor. Now having criterion releasing "Jungle Book" I guarantee that it will be highly restored just like other criterion DVDs. The coolest thing about this collection "SABU COLLECTION" is that it contain other two rare-movies starring sabu that are "Elephant Boy" and "The Drum".Waiting on pins and needles for the release of this collection!
