Singin In The Rain:
Silent movies are giving way to Talking Pictures and a hoofer turned matinee idol is caught in that bumpy transition, as well as his buddy, prospective ladylove and shrewish. The musical master work Singin In The Rain marks it's 50th anniversary in this Deluxe Edition providing a downpour of celebratory Special Features that salute not just this all time favourite but also the musical legacy of its producer, songwriter Arthus Freed.

My Fair Lady:
By George, they've got it. Newly transferred from elements painstakingly restored in 1994, the film version of Lerner and Loewe's My Fair Lady is lavish, lovely and the acclaimed recipient of eight 1964 Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director (George Cukor)

Best Actor Oscar winner Rex Harrison reprises is stage role of Henry Higgins, the supremely assured phoneticist who wages that under his tutelage, cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle can pass for a duchess as the Embassy Ball. In one of her best loved roles, Audrey Hepburn plays Eliza. If ever there was a face the professor could grow accustomed to, it's hers. In Hartford, Heresford and Hampshire (and elsewhere) no one's fairer them My Fair Lady, one of the most irresistible musicals ever,

Calamity Jane:
Doris Day and Howard Keel fuss, feud and fall in love as Calamity Jane and Wild Bill Hickok in this entertainment mother lode. At first curvaceous Calamity is too durned busy fighting Indians and cracking a bullwhip to pay mind to such girlie what alls as dresses and perfume. And Wild Bill is too ganged busy wooing a dainty chanteuse (Allyn McLerie) to give a hoot about a hot headed tomboy. But things change in a rootin, tootin, big way when each becomes love's target. There are wide open Technicolor Western spaces, lots of high stepping dances and a hummable humdinger of a score by Academy Award winning songwriters Sammy Fain and Paul Francis Webster, who took their first Oscar for the classic ballad (and 50s mega hit) Secret Lover.

An American In Paris:
Kelly plays an ex-GI who loves Paris and loves even more an alluring (but engaged) perfume shop clerk. Dance sequences spun around Gershwin songs accent Kelly's romantic pursuit. And the final 17 minute ballet, combining the title symphony, Impressionist set styling and Kelly's unique talent for telling a story in dance, lifts this winner of six Academy Awards including Best Picture into the ether of timelessness. Love Is Here To Stay, Kelly sings, So Is An American In Paris.
