Damn, this is why the Playlist is in desperate need of a DVD column — consider this an open call for those that are interested — somehow Hal Ashby’s excellent and underseen 1970 debut film, “The Landlord” was finally issued on DVD and no one told us about it (and we honestly don’t remember the usual suspects Jeff Wells or David Kehr writing about it, though yes, we may have missed it).

We saw finally saw Hal Ashby’s less revered, not-as-well- seen 1970 film “The Landlord,” last night at BAM’s AfroPunk film festival (no thanks to the useless publicists, mind you). It’s not readily available on DVD, we’ve been trying to see it for years, and we’ve unfortunately missed all the New York repertory screenings over the least few years (the last time being Sept 2007 at the Film Forum).

Goddamn it was good!
