Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has announced the Blu-ray release of director Jeff Kanew's
Troop Beverly Hills, starring Shelley Long, Craig T. Nelson, Betty Thomas, Mary Gross, Stephanie Beacham and Audra Lindley. The 1989 comedy makes its Blu-ray debut on March 7th.
Synopsis: Flamboyantly wealthy Phyllis Nefler (Long) has everything money can buy: a drop-dead Beverly Hills mansion, a classic Rolls, furs, jewelry and designer gowns. The one thing she doesn't have is her husband Freddy (Nelson), who's leaving her for good. Maybe. Determined to prove she's still the creative, energetic woman Freddy once loved, Phyllis throws luxury to the wind and becomes leader of her daughter's Wilderness Girls troop. But how much can this chic cookie take before she crumbles? Is saving her marriage really worth trading Gucci bags for sleeping bags, not to mention actually touching bugs? Featuring cameos by Robin Leach, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Pia Zadora, Frankie Avalon, Annette Funicello, Dr. Joyce Brothers and Cheech Marin, Shelley Long blazes comic trails in this trial-by-campfire comedy.
Sony has yet to detail tech specs. Special features include:
- Never-Before-Seen Deleted Scenes
