Kino Lorber have confirmed that they are preparing a Blu-ray release of director William A. Seiter's film
A Lady Takes a Chance (1943), starring Jean Arthur, John Wayne, Charles Winninger, Phil Silvers, and Mary Field. The release, which will be sourced from a new 4K remaster of the film, is expected to arrive on the market early next year.
Synopsis: Finding men had never been a problem for city girl Molly Trousdale (Jean Arthur)-finding the right man is another matter. And women have never been a problem for cowboy bachelor Duke Hutkins (John Wayne)-until they want to marry him. If it's true that opposites attract, they're obviously made for each other.
When Molly sets out from New York on a cross-country bus tour, she just wants to see America. But her plans take an unexpected turn out West, when she collides (literally!) with Duke while he's competing at the rodeo. He assumes she's just another pretty gal who'll fall into his arms, but she's a lady who won't be roped easily by a brawling, rough-and-ready cowboy.
Jean Arthur shows the spunk that made her one of the biggest stars of Hollywood's Golden Era, and John Wayne is at his most charming when he falls for her against his better judgment. So get ready for the dust to fly when these two screen legends star in a truly classic romantic comedy,
A Lady Takes A Chance!
