Kino Video have detailed three upcoming Blu-ray releases: Peter Yates's Robbery (1967), Alf Kjellin's Midas Run (1969), and Jack Couffer's Ring of Bright Water (1969).
Robbery
Synopsis: Based on the infamous "Great Train Robbery," this film follows Paul Clifton (Stanley Baker) as he forms a team to carry out an ambitious heist of cash from a government mail train traveling from Scotland to London. Clifton feels it necessary to add incarcerated money expert Robinson (Frank Finlay) to the group, so he organizes a jailbreak to free him as well. Although the theft succeeds, the criminals are still hounded by Scotland Yard detective Langdon (James Booth).
Special Features and Technical Specs:
Midas Run
Synopsis: A British agent (Fred Astaire) recruits a professor (Richard Crenna) in a plot to hijack gold bricks from a jetliner. Based on an original story and screenplay by Berne Giler (Affair in Trinidad, TV's The Man from U.N.C.L.E.). Cinematography by Ken Higgins (Darling).
Special Features and Technical Specs:
Ring of Bright Water
Synopsis: William Travers and Virginia McKenna, the husband-and-wife team who starred alongside Elsa the Lion in Born Free, now share the screen with Mij, a delightfully mischievous otter who'll enchant viewers of all ages in this bright, "wholesome" (Cue), "captivating and endearing" (Video Hound's Golden Movie Retriever) film!
Middle-aged bachelor Graham Merrill (Travers) has a nice, quiet life in London, but his fun-loving new roommate Mij is about to change everything! Curious and playful, this otter has better things to do than sit around a stuff apartment, so Graham decides to move to the coast of Scotland where Mij can frolic to his heart's content. Once there, they meet Mary (McKenna), and the unlikely trio begins an incredible journey of friendships and discovery that will transform each of their lives forever!
