Paramount: The Odd Couple II and The Stooge Heading to Blu-ray

Posted October 9, 2020 09:03 PM by Webmaster

Paramount Home Media Distribution will release on Blu-ray Howard Deutch's The Odd Couple II (1998) and Norman Taurog's The Stooge (1951). The two releases will be available for purchase on November 10.

The Odd Couple II

Synopsis: The times may have changed, but thankfully not the traits that make ex-roomies Felix (Jack Lemmon) and Oscar (Walter Matthau) the all-time perfect mismatch. Oscar is still an uncompromising slob who thinks a brown sock and a black sock is close enough. Felix is still a fussbudget who can't pass a spice rack without arranging it alphabetically. After years of going their separate ways, the two are together again, en route to the wedding of Oscar's son to Felix's daughter. They've got the map, the rental car, a tankful of Simon's comedy zingers, and they're getting 1,000 smiles to the gallon.

The Stooge

Synopsis: THE MARTIN & LEWIS CLASSIC FOR THE FIRST TIME ON BLU-RAY! Money isn't everything and Bill Miller is the guy who keeps proving it. He's carved out a modest niche as a singer in the off-off-vaudeville circuit. But suddenly his act is big news. Well, not just his act. He's now teamed with a manic comic. Yet Bill can't admit that the reason for his success is The Stooge. One sings, one clowns...sounds like anyone you know? Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis bring their straight man-funnyman act to this show biz story set in the 1930s. Songs include "Who's Your Little Whozis?" and comedy moments include just about any time Lewis is on screen. Don't miss the fun when he turns Dino's "Just One More Chance" into a zany production number of rising curtains, falling sandbags, and a flying comic-on-a-rope. You'll be glad to give it more than one chance!
