"Sublime" Thief of Bagdad in Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern of The Wall Street Journal reviews The Thief of Bagdad: I've just had my own eyes opened, once again, by The Thief of Bagdad, a 1940 fantasy that I've praised before...I thought the colors were sumptuous [before], but they've been bumped up to sublime in [the] magnificent Criterion version... The two-disk set also includes commentary by Francis Coppola and Martin Scorsese, who recall their own childhood enchantment with great children's films in the process of explicating this one."
