COOPER, BRANDO, AND NEWMAN BOXSETS IN NOVEMBER


On Video is listing the following boxset titles and details: BRANDO (TEAHOUSE OF THE AUGUST MOON, JULIUS CAESAR, REFLECTIONS IN A GOLDEN EYE, 2-disc MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY, THE FORMULA) on November 7; GARY COOPER (2-disc SERGEANT YORK, DALLAS, THE FOUNTAINHEAD, WRECK OF THE MARY DEARE, SPRINGFIELD RIFLE, THE HANGING TREE) on November 7); NEWMAN (THE YOUNG PHILADELPHIANS, HARPER, THE DROWNING POOL, POCKET MONEY, THE LEFT HANDED GUN, THE MACKINTOSH MAN, and SOMEBODY UP THERE LIKES ME) on 11/14. Newman fans will be pleased with the commentaries on THE LEFT-HANDED GUN and SOMEBODY...but they are not using a Robert Wise commentary which was recorded many years ago.

Re: COOPER, BRANDO, AND NEWMAN BOXSETS IN NOVEMBER


I'm not quite straight about the Cooper set. Is "The Hanging Tree" part of this group or not? There seem to be conflicting reports as to that one ...

Excellent! But why is The Hanging Tree no longer in the Cooper set?

Great news, but where's Natalie Wood? She was a longtime Warners player and multiple Oscar nominee!!

Great News about the boxsets. Sad News for me: No "PRIZE" or "HELEN MORGAN STORY" in the Newman set.

Re: COOPER, BRANDO, AND NEWMAN BOXSETS IN NOVEMBER


I'll get the Newman box and will get SERGEANT YORK, MUTINTY ON THE BOUNTY and REFLECTIONS IN A GOLDEN EYES seprately. And yes! Where is Natalie Wood's box set? INSIDE DAISY CLOVER, GYPSY, PENELOPE, a SE: or SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS, SEX AND THE SINGLE GIRL and THE GREAT RACE.

Re: COOPER, BRANDO, AND NEWMAN BOXSETS IN NOVEMBER


aside of the Newman set, which has a couple I'm familiar with, SERGEANT YORK and MUTINTY ON THE BOUNTY are the only ones I'm interested in in the others, unless someone can convince me other wise.

According to the information posted earlier, of the titles in the Brando box, only 'Mutiny On The Bounty' will be available separately, not 'Reflections In A Golden Eye'. Like you, I would prefer to buy Reflections separately (as well as Mutiny) and pass on the others, but it looks like I'll have to buy the box.

It's really great that these are coming out on DVD, just too much at the moment for me.

The Marlon Brando set is my fav
