Warner Archive has announced that it will add four additional titles to its Blu-ray catalog:
Doc Hollywood (1991),
Dolores Claiborne (1995),
Battle Cry (1955).
Auntie Mame (1958). The three releases will be available for purchase this November.
Doc Hollywood
Synopsis: "Beverly Hills. The most beautiful women in the world. Plastic surgery. What do these three things have in common?" asks Dr. Ben Stone (Michael J. Fox). "Me, in less than a week!" It turns out to be an eye-opening week.
And Doc Hollywood turns out to be a witty charmer. Stone is a newly minted MD whose medical fast-lane cruise takes a small-town detour. Grady, South Carolina, Squash Capital of the South, is home to salt-of-the-earth folks (Julie Warner, Woody Harrelson, Bridget Fonda, David Ogden Stiers, Barnard Hughes) who give the West Coast-bound hotshot the seasoning he lacks.
Doc Hollywood is a surefire prescription for comedy cheer!

Kathy Bates, who won a Best Actress Oscar® for Misery,* scores in another chilling Stephen King story (directed by Taylor Hackford) as tough-talking Dolores Claiborne.

Uris from his own novel, directed by action master Raoul Walsh and starring a who's who of '50s movie stars, Battle Cry is an epic ode to World War II Marine heroism and homefront sacrifice, a saga following recruits from boot camp to a New Zealand base of operations to the war they knew would someday come their way: the bloody invasion of Saipan.

Reprising her Broadway triumph, Rosalind Russell received her fourth Oscar nomination and third Golden Globe Award as the marvelous madcap woman who lives life to the hilt.
Auntie Mame brings to bubbly life the mayhem Mame and her cronies create while guiding Patrick's fortunes. "Life is a banquet," Mame says, "and most poor suckers are starving to death!" With wit, style and a seasoned cast to dish humor and heart with gusto, Auntie Mame is a full-course meal of entertainment magic.
