Olive Films have revealed that they are preparing for Blu-ray release director Raoul Walsh's
Pursued (1947), starring Teresa Wright, Robert Mitchum and Judith Anderson. Exact technical specs and region coding status are unknown at the moment, but the preliminary release date set by the distributors is August 21.
Robert Mitchum (
The Night of the Hunter,
Cape Fear) plays a jaded Civil War hero who's pursued into the barren frontier wilderness by inner demons from his childhood past and real killers in the present. His passion for Teresa Wright (
The Pride of the Yankees), who plays his stepsister leads to a fatal gunfight with her brother. Embittered and intent on seeking revenge on their wedding night, Wright marries Mitchum, but the arrival of a mysterious stranger out to settle an old score with Mitchum sidetracks her and leads to a startling climax of treachery, murder and shocking revelations.
