Away We Go
(Focus, $29.98)

The Wizard of Oz: Ultimate Collector’s Edition
(Warner Home Video, $64.95)
In this restored edition of the classic, “the ruby slippers are at their rubiest,” and Emerald City “couldn’t gleam much greener,” said The Washington Post. Sixteen hours of bonus material as well as a “lovely” hardcover book are included.
Traffik
(Acorn Media, $39.99)
The original British miniseries was “less stylish” than Steven Soderbergh’s 2000 film adaptation, but it also had “more nuance,” said All Movie Guide. The clear-eyed view of the narcotics trade, along with scenes of South Asia should impress even the movie’s most “rabid fans.”
