The Heiress DVD 1949 Olivia De Havilland Montgomery Clift Import Collector's Edition
Cinematical (Free subscription) | yesterday
Packed in a velvet box filled with three discs full of bonus features, a 20-page reproduction of the original program, a 40-page book about the production, eight art prints, and a CD sampler, one might accuse Warner Home Video of gilding the lily for their premier release of Gone With the Wind on Blu-ray. Amazingly, however, the set manages to seem like exactly the amount of excess that would be necessary...

This was a pretty dry month for movies--not that I'm complaining, since I've spent the last two weeks as good as unconscious. In any case, there are just four extremely trivial movies here: Marine Raiders , with Pat O'Brien and Frank McHugh; Hard to Get , with Dick Powell, Olivia de Havilland, and Allen Jenkins; Twenty Million Sweethearts , with O'Brien, Powell, and Jenkins; and The Great O'Malley...

The band's legal struggles with EMI -- since resolved with an unlikely Old Hollywood assist -- inform its new album, 'This Is War.' A few weeks ago, Jared Leto got a letter in the mail. It was addressed to the 30 Seconds to Mars singer in formal, feminine script and arrived on thick, azure-colored paper. The return address was the real surprise, however -- the Paris home of Olivia de Havilland, the...

Maybe your mother or grandmother, or even great-grandmother had a box of Frownies at their vanity table. Frownies have been around for a very long time. In fact, according to their website, these all natural wrinkle smoothers worn while you sleep, were created in 1889. And what a wonderful story: "Frownies were created in 1889 after Margaret Kroesen discovered that her daughter Alice, a concert...

After some early flops, her luck changed one night at a dinner party when she found herself seated next to producer David O....

As gilded and over-the-top as the Old South itself, the Gone with the Wind 70th Anniversary Collector's Edition Blu-ray release is an impressive tribute to one of the best loved films of all time. The Victor Fleming-directed (at least Fleming gets the credit) classic, based on Margaret Mitchell's book of the same name, looks exceedingly good in high definition, and the bonus items (video and otherwise)...

( Warning: spoilers contained herein) Hard to Get (1938) – I had to program the DVD player to grab this one since TCM decided to show it at the same time most night auditors are eating dinner/lunch/whatever. It’s fairly standard stuff; Olivia De Havilland plays Margaret “Maggie” Richards, a pampered heiress who storms out of her family’s palatial manse in a huff (or maybe...
