Time and tide wait for no man, and neither do DVD release dates. Somehow these excellent boxed sets managed to avoid getting reviewed by me, but I think they deserve a plug anyway, and what better place for plugging than a blog. So here's a dozen sets, with more to follow. —Josef Krebs
Robert Mitchum: The Signature Collection [6-disc set] (Warner, $59.92)
The 6 films in the set are Otto Preminger’s Angel Face, Josef Von Sternberg’s Macao, Vincente Minnelli’s Home from the Hill, Fred Zinnemann’s The Sundowners, Sydney Pollack’s The Yakuza (written by Paul Schrader and Robert Towne), and The Good Guys & the Bad Guys. Extras include 3 commentaries, a TCM private screening of Macao with Robert Mitchum and Jane Russell, and 3 vintage featurettes.
