In 1952, star Kirk Douglas, director Vincente Minnelli, producer John Houseman and screenwriter Charles Schnee teamed for what many consider the greatest drama ever made about Hollywood: The Bad and the Beautiful. Ten years later, they took another powerful insider’s look at the movie business, this time adapting a book by Irwin Shaw. Douglas portrays has-been screen idol Jack Andrus. Just out of a sanitarium, Jack grabs at a small role in a movie shot in Rome by a director (Edward G. Robinson) whose career is also on the skids. When the director falls ill, Jack takes over, realizing this is his last shot at personal and professional redemption. Trenchant, confrontational and intensified by Minnelli’s genius for color, Two Weeks in Another Town captures the passion of creative people facing the abyss.

Wade Hunnicutt is a big man who casts a big shadow, one that looms over the Texas backwoodsmen who work his land…over the beautiful, embittered wife he cheats on…and over the sons – one from marriage and one illegitimate – who strive for their father’s respect. Robert Mitchum “gives one of his greatest performances” (Michael Barson, The Illustrated Who’s Who of Hollywood Directors) as Wade, and Vincente Minnelli directs this sprawling, emotionally volatile tale of an epic clash between generations. In early-career roles, George Peppard and George Hamilton costar as Wade’s sons, determined to be their own men, yet in danger of repeating their father’s life-crippling legacy of lust and violence.

He dons various disguises to gain his victims' trust and always leaves his calling card, a red lipstick mark, when he's done. Christopher begins deliberately tipping off detective Morris Brummel (George Segal) on the phone, drawing the detective—who has issues with his own overbearing mother (Eileen Heckart)—into a game of cat and mouse.

Comedy legend Jackie Gleason (TV s The Honeymooners) stars in this warm-hearted look back at one family's larger-than-life father. Set at the start of the 20th century, Gleason plays Jack Griffith, a gregarious railroad man whose love for his family is rivaled only by his love for the bottle. Griffith's penchant for outrageous behavior, followed up by more outrageous gifts to atone for it, has begun to alienate his wife and oldest daughter, although his youngest still adores her father. Gleason portrays Griffith with a mixture of humor and humanity, and the end result is a moving portrait of a family's ups and downs. Gleason's performance of the Oscar winning song (Call Me Irresponsible) by Jimmy Van Heusen (music) and Sammy Cahn (lyrics) is not to be missed. Hollywood veteran George Marshall (Destry Rides Again) directed this heartwarming comedy that features a wonderful cast that includes Glynis Johns (Mary Poppins), Charles Ruggles (Bringing Up Baby), Ned Glass (West Side Story), Murray Hamilton (Jaws) and Elisha Cook, Jr. (The Maltese Falcon).

*This listing is for the standard edition version and does NOT come with a limited edition slipcase!* In 1958, commercial producer Frank P. Bibas began production on a television anthology series for the legendary Hal Roach Studios centered around classic horror titan Boris Karloff. Predating One Step Beyond, The Twilight Zone, and Thriller, THE VEIL crafted each episode around mysterious and unexplainable phenomena, including time travel, ESP, reincarnation, astral projection, and the supernatural. Despite it being an era ripe with science fiction and horror, the dozen episodes of THE VEIL, all of which featured a top-tier cast and crew, never saw broadcast and then vanished completely for decades. Featuring Boris Karloff as host (in all but the original version of the pilot) and cast in lead or supporting roles in each episode but one, THE VEIL harnessed in its short time a noteworthy array of talent from both behind and in front of the camera. Writers on the series included Jack Laird (Night Gallery) and Lásló Vadnay (Flesh and Fantasy), and among the directors were Arthur Hiller (The Hospital, Silver Streak), George Waggner (The Wolf Man, TV's Batman), and Herbert L. Strock (How to Make a Monster, TV's Science Fiction Theatre). The rotating casts of on-screen talent in THE VEIL included Patrick Macnee (The Howling), Katharine Squire (The Alfred Hitchcock Hour), Torin Thatcher (The Snows of Kilimanjaro), Niall MacGinnis (Island of Terror), Denise Alexander (TV's Days of our Lives), Whit Bissell (Soylent Green), and the first on-screen appearance of George Hamilton (Love at First Bite). Iconoscope is honored to present the first official Blu-ray release of the complete series, newly scanned in 4k from rare archival film elements and featuring an array of new and archival extras, including some recently rediscovered bonuses.
