Camelot 45th Anniversary, Blu-Ray

camelot200ccccccccccccccccccccc.jpgCamelot 45th Anniversary -  Blu-Ray remastered edition arrives July 17, 2012 from Warner Home Video. The oft-told tales of Arthurian legend have always been fertile ground for art. With countless books, fi lms and songs on the subject, there have been many interpretations of Merlin, the Knights of the Round Table, the glories of the kingdom of Camelot and the doomed love triangle of King Arthur, Lady Guenevere and Sir Lancelot du Lac. The musical Camelot, however, remains the most iconic.

Rebecca - Blu-Ray

rebecca-bray200.jpgThe cover of MGM's new Blu-Ray release of Alfred Hitchock's 1940 classic Rebecca tells a lot about this story in the faces of the actresses. Joan Fontaine plays Mrs. de Winter, a defenseless newlywed of the wealthy Maxim de Winter (Laurence Olivier). Her horror of what happens in his house is brilliantly captured in Fontaine's face on this cover. And speaking volumes about her role is the face of Judith Anderson who as housekeeper Mrs. Danvers, refuses to let the spirit of Maxim's dead wife be replaced. Twentieth Century Fox has done great rework on the film, already hailed as a top-looking black and white of its era, and the Blu-Ray aspects supremely bring these details to the forefront in creating a seamless viewing experience. Fox didn't overlook details in providing wonderful bonus features as well.
