Kate Winslet's 'Mildred Pierce' hits DVD

MILDRED PIERCE

MINISERIES Deluxe-boxed "Collector's Edition" of Todd Haynes' movie melodrama remake for HBO looks stunning, with fine 1930s period detail (much of it filmed across Long Island). But things move a bit too methodically to match Joan Crawford's fiery original. With Kate Winslet, Guy Pearce, Evan Rachel Wood.
