I Love You Again 1940 New On Bluray

Product Description: Take a refreshing plot with a novel twist, add line after line of wonderfully saucy dialogue, garnish with top – notch direction by W.S. Van Dyke II, and the result is one of the brightest, romantic comedies ever essayed by the irresistible team of William Powell and Myrna Loy. In this wildly original tale (by Charles Lederer, George Oppenheimer, and Harry Kurnitz) Mr. Powell plays a big-city confidence man who awakens from a nine-year amnesia to discover he has become the manager of a small town pottery works, joined by the Elks and married Miss Loy. Partnered in a phony oil scam, he continues the charade only to find Miss Loy's about to divorce him for being such a fuddy-duddy! His problem: How to get the dough, avoid discovery and re-win the heart of his wife. The result is an unpredictable mileage of swift gags and clever one-liners. William Powell and Myrna Loy. Screen legends, and a barrel of fun!

san-francisco-1936-new-on-bluray

Product Description: Romantic drama combines with humor, star power combines with lavish spectacle, and the walls come tumbling down!

after-the-thin-man-1936-new-on-bluray

Product Description: It is New Years Eve, Nick and Nora Charles have returned to the West Coast, and the philandering hubby of Noras cousin has gone missing. Round up the unusual suspects. The stars (including the four-footed one!), writers and director of The Thin Man reunite for a giddy second comedy whodunit. Myrna Loy is Nora, who by all accounts does not scold, does not nag and looks far too pretty in the morning. William Powell is Nick, retired from sleuthing but hardly retiring when it comes to a case more scrambled than the 3 A.M. eggs he whips up. And rising star James Stewart leads a tip-top supporting cast. This is a fine way to start the New Year, Nick says, as he springs Nora from lockup. Indeed, it is.

the-thin-man-1934-new-on-bluray

Product Description: Nick and Nora Charles cordially invite you to bring your own alibi to The Thin Man, the jaunty whodunit that made William Powell and Myrna Loy the champagne elite of sleuthing. Bantering in the boudoir, enjoying walks with beloved dog Asta or matching each other highball for highball and clue for clue, they combined screwball romance with mystery. The resulting triumph nabbed four Academy Award® nominations (including Best Picture) and spawned five sequels. Credit W.S. Woody Van Dyke for recognizing that Powell and Loy were ideal together and for getting the studio s okay by promising to shoot this splendid adaptation of Dashiell Hammett s novel in three weeks. He took 12 days. They didn't call him One-Take Woody for nothing.
