Kino Classics will release on Blu-ray Lewis Milestone's (
All Quiet on the Western Front)
The Front Page (1931), starring Adolphe Menjou, Pat O'Brien, and Mary Brian. The release is scheduled to arrive on the U.S market this August.
Synopsis: This hilarious Broadway favorite was remade into multiple film versions (including His Girl Friday) but the original remains a high-water mark. The star crime reporter at a sleazy Chicago tabloid prepares to file his final story for the paper before moving on to more dignified work, but his desperate editor will stop at nothing to keep him on board, not even blackmail or the kidnapping of his future mother-in-law! The film was nominated for several Oscars including Best Picture, Best Actor and Best Director. Recently restored from 35mm archival elements.
