Kino Lorber have detailed their upcoming Blu-ray release of Allen Coulter's film Hollywoodland (2006), starring Adrien Brody, Diane Lane, Ben Affleck, Bob Hoskins, and Robin Tunney. The release will be available for purchase on August 25.
Synopsis: Struggling private investigator Louis Simo treats his work more as a means to make a living than a want to do right by what few clients he has. Through connections with the investigation firm for which he used to work, Simo is hired by Helen Bessolo to investigate the death of her son, actor George Reeves. Reeves was best known for his title role in Adventures of Superman, a role which he always despised, in part since it typecast him as a "cartoon", despite it bringing him a certain fame. His June 16, 1959 death by a single gunshot wound while in his bedroom in his Los Angeles home was ruled a suicide by the police, the death which occurred when the house was filled with people.
