Warner Archive has announced that it will add ning new titles to its Blu-ray catalog in November: The World, the Flesh and the Devil (1959), The Bad and the Beautiful (1952), Great Day in the Morning (1956), Operation Crossbow (1965), The 100: The Complete Fifth Season, The Kominsky Method: The Complete First Season, Young Justice: Outsiders (2019), Blindspot: The Complete Fourth Season, and Teen Titans: The Compete Series (2003-2006).
Operation Crossbow
Synopsis: A fearsome rumor reaches Britain's World War II command. The Nazis are developing rocket technology that could rain death on London and then New York. Quickly, England develops a plan to send saboteurs into the sites manufacturing the rockets. Just moments after the carefully chosen commandos parachute into the drop zone, their pilot receives an urgent message: The mission may be compromised. Abort. Operation Crossbow is the partly fact-based tale of how that team succeeded against daunting odds. Michael Anderson (The Dam Busters, Logan's Run) directs, guiding a huge cast in a film that builds to a spectacular finale, yet never neglects war's unsparing personal costs. As a record of a wartime espionage incursion and as an intrigue-filled thriller, Operation Crossbow is on both counts Operation Accomplished.
Special Features and Technical Specs:
Synopsis: Appearances are everything in Hollywood. So, when conniving moviemaker Jonathan Shields realizes few mourners will show up for the funeral of his equally conniving father, he knows what to do: hire extras. Kirk Douglas gives a magnetic, Oscar®-nominated performance as Shields, who turns talent, charisma and ruthlessness into film success, stomping on careers and creating enemies along the way. Vincente Minnelli directs this winner of five Academy Awards® that's more than a compelling insider's look at Tinseltown: It's an opportunity for buffs to guess which real-life stars and moguls inspired the roles played by Douglas, Lana Turner, Walter Pidgeon, Dick Powell, Best Supporting Actress Gloria Grahame and more.
Special Features and Technical Specs:
Synopsis: The young town of Denver, CO, right before the outbreak of the Civil War, is the setting for this Western drama from acclaimed director Jacques Tourneur (Out of the Past, Stars in My Crown). Recently rescued from an Indian ambush, laconic Southern loner Owen Pentecost (Robert Stack) rides into town and into the hearts of saloon girl Boston (Ruth Roman) and frontier entrepreneur Ann Merry (a pants-wearing and liberated Virginia Mayo). With Boston's aid, Owen wins the deed to the local saloon in a card game against its menacing cardcheat owner, the aptly named Jumbo Means (Raymond Burr). With secession causing tensions to rise between Denver's Northerner majority and Southerner minority, Owen is pressured to support his Confederate brothers, but he remains firmly committed to his one true cause – gold! And there's two million dollars' worth of it that needs to be smuggled out before the start of the war!
Special Features and Technical Specs:
Synopsis: "Millions Flee from Cities! End of the World!" From a Manhattan skyscraper, Ralph Burton (Harry Belafonte) surveys the emptiness announced by that chilling newspaper headline. Nuclear doomsday has come. Ralph is sure he is the last person alive. Then, a woman (Inger Stevens) appears and the two form a cautious friendship that's threatened when a third survivor (Mel Ferrer) arrives. Unlike other postapocalyptic thrillers, from The Time Machine to I Am Legend, there are no external monsters to battle here. Instead, the monsters – fear, intolerance, jealousy – lurk inside the all-too human beings. And heightening the intensity of writer/director Ranald MacDougall's suspenseful and unsettling movie are stunning vistas of unpopulated New York: vast, empty and soulless.
Technical Specs:
Synopsis: For five seasons, our heroes did whatever it took to survive on Earth...and nothing worked. Their inability to overcome the instinct to fight caused the destruction of the planet. Now, after 125 years in cryosleep traveling through the stars, our heroes wake up to a new home – a final gift from their dearly departed friend Monty – a place where they can try again. Their task is simple: Do better. Be the good guys. With this credo in mind, Clarke and Bellamy (Eliza Taylor and Bob Morley) lead a group down to this mysterious world, Sanctum, hoping to start anew and finally find peace. But old habits die hard, and when they discover an idyllic society, it quickly becomes clear that not everything on Sanctum is as perfect as it seems. Despite their determination to do better, threats both seen and unseen, internal and external, will once again force our heroes to fight for their lives and the future of humanity.
Special Features and Technical Specs:
Synopsis: The sun isn't setting yet on the once-famous acting coach Sandy Kominsky and his cantankerous longtime agent, Norman Newlander. Academy Award winners Michael Douglas and Alan Arkin star as best friends who keep each other going as they navigate their twilight years in youth-obsessed Los Angeles. Mortality is something other people deal with until Sandy is forced to face his when Norman's wife, Eileen, becomes terminally ill. From then on, it's Sandy and Norman against the world, tackling every curveball life tosses their way. Bizarre funeral stipulations, senior dating, the aging of male body parts, a drug-addicted adult daughter and an overdue IRS bill: All are fodder for big laughs and heartfelt drama in this 8-episode first season from creator Chuck Lorre (The Big Bang Theory, Mom).
Technical Specs:
Synopsis: Following the emotionally charged third-season finale, Blindspot returns for its fourth season. Jane (Jaimie Alexander) is being poisoned by ZIP, the very drug used to wipe her memory. Also suffering from the disease, her brother Roman (Luke Mitchell) was searching for a cure and hid caches of data all over the globe. The team will follow a trail of cryptic bread crumbs that leads to all-new crimes and, with any luck, a cure to save Jane. Season Four begins with Weller (Sullivan Stapleton) on the brink of death and Remi having returned from the depths of Jane's mind. Not knowing that Zapata (Audrey Esparza) has joined the villainous HCI Global, Reade (Rob Brown) tries desperately to find her. At the same time, Patterson (Ashley Johnson) hunts to cure Jane with Rich DotCom (new series regular Ennis Esmer). Embracing last season's global scope, Season Four's action-packed missions will take the team all over Europe and South America.
