The Texas Rangers 1936 New On Bluray

Product Description: 4K Restoration by Universal Pictures in collaboration with The Film Foundation! Fred MacMurray (The Apartment) and Jack Oakie (Murder at the Vanities) star in a magnificent, Oscar®-nominated Western (1936 Best Sound Recording) from legendary director King Vidor (The Big Parade, War and Peace). MacMurray and Oakie play Jim Hawkins and Wahoo Jones, two devil-may-care outlaws who roam the Texas frontier. Their days are numbered, however, when the elite Texas Rangers sweep through to bring law and order to the state. Deciding, "If you want to beat 'em, join 'em," Jim and Wahoo enlist in the Rangers in order to stay one jump ahead of the lawmen. But the outlaws are soon engaged in a series of hair-raising adventures, confronting villains who seek to exploit the innocent settlers. As Jim and Wahoo become heroes, they are suddenly in conflict—with themselves and their old partners in crime. 4K Restoration by Universal Pictures in collaboration with The Film Foundation. 35mm Nitrate Silent Fine Grain Provided by UCLA Film & Television Archive.

it-happened-tomorrow-1944-new-on-bluray

Product Description: What would happen if someone could get tomorrow’s newspaper headlines today? This charming period comedy tells the story of a reporter (Dick Powell) who wishes he could scoop his colleagues by knowing about events before they occur. When a mysterious old man gives him the news a day in advance, his life is turned upside down. Racing to prevent a headline predicting his own death, he gets mixed up with a beautiful fortune teller (Linda Darnell) and her overprotective uncle (Jack Oakie). It Happened Tomorrow was acclaimed French director René Clair’s (Beauty of the Devil) follow up to his equally enchanting I Married a Witch, both made during his exile in Hollywood during World War II. Clair’s famous whimsical style is evident in this cautionary tale; be careful―what you wish for might come true. This sparkling black and white film was restored from a 4K scan.
