MGMALFRED HITCHCOCK

PREMIERE COLLECTION

 

 

Arriving On DVD October 14 From MGM Home Entertainment

The Eight-Disc Set Includes All-New Commentaries, Featurettes, Screen Tests, Vintage Radio Interviews, An AFI Tribute To The Director And More

Nominated collectively for a total of 23 Academy Awards, these films are beautifully restored and remastered and feature titles out of print on DVD for several years.  The eight-disc set is highlighted by Hitchcock’s Oscar winner for Best Picture Rebecca, starring Joan Fontaine (Suspicion) and Laurence Olivier (Hamlet) in a dark tale of love and obsession.  Silver screen siren Ingrid Bergman (Casablanca) makes an appearance in two Hitchcock classics; first alongside Gregory Peck (To Kill a Mockingbird) in Spellbound, as a young doctor in pursuit of the truth and next alongside Cary Grant (North by Northwest) in Notorious, a tale of crime, passion and espionage.  Rounding out the collection is Peck once again in The Paradine Case as a lawyer defending a beautiful woman accused of poisoning her husband, the spy thriller Sabotage, the romantic murder-mystery drama Young and Innocent, the suspenseful high seas thriller Lifeboat and one of Hitchcock’s earliest films, the terrifying whodunit The Lodger featuring an all-new anniversary score.

 

With hours of all-new special features including audio commentaries, featurettes, screen tests, still galleries, vintage radio interviews, an AFI Tribute to Hitchcock and more, the DVD collection also includes a 32-page notebook with trivia, production notes and more about the legendary director.  Available for a suggested retail price of $119.98 U.S. / $159.98 Canada, Rebecca, Spellbound and Notorious will also be available as singe discs for a suggested retail price of $19.98.

Featured Review

Salvador-Special Edition

Category: DVD Reviews
A powerful film, Salvador was an early Oliver Stone masterpiece, garnering two Academy Award nominations; one for James Woods and one for the screenplay, written by Stone and the subject of the film , Richard Boyle. Stone took great risks in making the film, including trying to fool the right wing El Salvador government into thinking he was supporting them. When their military contact for the film was murdered by rebels, Stone pulled out and filmed in Mexico.
