Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: Shane offers a very satisfying Western. It's not my favorite example of the genre - I really loved Stagecoach - but it works well overall and provides a compelling experience. The DVD features mediocre picture and audio along with a generally informative commentary. The movie remains a classic, but the DVD has problems. Starring Alan Ladd, Jack Palance. Paramount, $9.99, 8/15/2000.
