Captain Newman, M.D. BLU-RAY DEBUT(1963) From David Miller, the director of 'Sudden Fear,' 'Midnight Lace,' 'Lonely Are the Brave' and' Executive Action,' comes this realistic look at life and love inside a stateside military hospital's psychiatric ward during World War II, starring screen great Gregory Peck. This classic comedy-drama follows the affable Captain Newman (Peck) as he uses both humor and compassion to reach patients whose wartime injuries plague their minds instead of their bodies. Co-starring Tony Curtis, Angie Dickinson, Eddie Albert, Robert Duvall, Dick Sargent and Bobby Darin, this critically acclaimed film is just what the doctor ordered. Captain Newman, M.D. was nominated for three Oscars: Best Actor in a Supporting Role (Darin), Best Writing, Screenplay Based on Material from Another Medium (Richard L. Breen, Phoebe Ephron, Henry Ephron) and Best Sound (Waldon O. Watson). Formats: Blu-ray. Extras: new audio commentary by film historian Samm Deighan, theatrical trailer. (Kino Lorber Studio Classics). The 100: The Complete Seventh and Final Season(2020) Three-disc set with all 16 episodes. Set ninety-seven years after a nuclear war has destroyed civilization, when a spaceship housing humanity's lone survivors sends one hundred juvenile delinquents back to Earth, in hopes of possibly re-populating the planet. The seventh and final season opens with our heroes picking up the pieces of the society they destroyed on Sanctum. Still reeling from her mother's death, Clarke (series star Eliza Taylor), perhaps more than anyone, feels the toll of years upon years of fighting and loss. The group soon finds that maintaining order among the competing factions is no easy feat, and one that has them questioning whether their commitment to doing better was worth the price. At the same time, our heroes must contend with new obstacles on a scale beyond any that they previously experienced as they unravel the mysteries of the Anomaly. What they encounter on this epic journey pushes them to their limits both physically and emotionally, challenging their long-held conceptions of family, love, and sacrifice. Formats: DVD, Blu-ray. (Warner Archive). Three Films By Luis BuñuelMore than four decades after he took a razorblade to an eyeball and shocked the world with 'Un chien andalou,' arch-iconoclast Luis Buñuel capped his astonishing career with three final provocations -- 'The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie,' 'The Phantom of Liberty' and 'That Obscure Object of Desire' -- in which his renegade, free-associating surrealism reached its audacious, self-detonating endgame. Working with such key collaborators as screenwriter Jean-Claude Carrière and his own frequent on-screen alter ego Fernando Rey, Buñuel laced his scathing attacks on religion, class pretension, and moral hypocrisy with savage violence to create a trio of subversive, brutally funny masterpieces that explore the absurd randomness of existence. Among the director's most radical works as well as some of his greatest international triumphs, these films cemented his legacy as cinema's most incendiary revolutionary. THE DISCREET CHARM OF THE BOURGEOISIE (1972): Buñuel's deliciously satiric masterpiece, an upper-class sextet sits down to a dinner that is continually delayed, their attempts to eat thwarted by vaudevillian events both actual and imagined, including terrorist attacks, military maneuvers, and ghostly apparitions. Stringing together a discontinuous, digressive series of absurdist set pieces, Buñuel and his screenwriting partner Jean-Claude Carrière send a cast of European-film greats -- including Fernando Rey, Stéphane Audran, Delphine Seyrig, and Jean-Pierre Cassel -- through a maze of desire deferred, frustrated, and interrupted. THE PHANTOM OF LIBERTY (1974): Buñuel's vision of the inherent absurdity of human social rituals reaches its taboo-annihilating extreme in what may be his most morally subversive and formally audacious work. Zigzagging across time and space, from the Napoleonic era to the present day, 'The Phantom of Liberty' unfolds as a picaresque, its main character traveling between tableaux in a series of Dadaist non sequiturs. Unbound by the laws of narrative logic, Buñuel lets his surrealist's id run riot in an exuberant revolt against bourgeois rationality that seems telegraphed directly from his unconscious to the screen. https://erachinpon1983.mystrikingly.com/blog/new-york-islanders-2019. THAT OBSCURE OBJECT OF DESIRE (1977): Buñuel's final film brings full circle the director's lifelong preoccupation with the darker side of desire. Buñuel regular Fernando Rey plays Mathieu, an urbane widower, tortured by his lust for the elusive Conchita. With subversive flair, Buñuel uses two different actors in the latter role -- Carole Bouquet, a sophisticated French beauty, and Ángela Molina, a Spanish coquette. Drawn from the surrealist favorite Pierre Louÿs's classic erotic novel 'La femme et le pantin (The Woman and the Puppet,' 1898), 'That Obscure Object of Desire' is a dizzying game of sexual politics punctuated by a terror that harks back to Buñuel's avant-garde beginnings. Formats: Blu-ray, with new high-definition digital restorations of all three films, with uncompressed monaural soundtracks. Extras: 'The Castaway of Providence Street,' a 1971 homage to Luis Buñuel made by his longtime friends and fellow filmmakers Arturo Ripstein and Rafael Castanedo; 'Speaking of Buñuel,' a documentary from 2000 on Buñuel's life and work; 'Once Upon a Time: The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie,' a 2011 television program about the making of the film; interviews from 2000 with screenwriter Jean-Claude Carrière on 'The Phantom of Liberty' and 'That Obscure Object of Desire'; archival interviews on all three films featuring Carrière, actors Stéphane Audran, Muni, Michel Piccoli, and Fernando Rey, and other key collaborators; documentary from 1985 about producer Serge Silberman, who worked with Buñuel on five of his final seven films; 'Analysis of The Phantom of Liberty' from 2017 by film scholar Peter William Evans; 'Lady Doubles,' a 2017 documentary featuring actors Carole Bouquet and Ángela Molina, who share the role of Conchita in 'That Obscure Object of Desire'; 'Portrait of an Impatient Filmmaker, Luis Buñuel,' a 2012 short documentary featuring director of photography Edmond Richard and assistant director Pierre Lary; excerpts from Jacques de Baroncelli's 1929 silent film 'La femme et le pantin,' an adaptation of Pierre Louÿs's 1898 novel of the same name, on which 'That Obscure Object of Desire' is also based; alternate English-dubbed soundtrack for 'That Obscure Object of Desire'; trailers; essays by critic Adrian Martin and novelist and critic Gary Indiana, along with interviews with Buñuel by critics José de la Colina and Tomás Pérez Turrent. (The Criterion Collection). 12 Hour Shift(2020) Angela Bettis, Chloe Farnworth, Nikea Gamby-Turner, David Arquette. Set in a small-town Arkansas hospital in 1999, the film follows Mandy (Bettis) a drug-addicted nurse who gets caught in the middle of a black market organ-trading scheme after her ruthless cousin, Regina (Farnworth), misplaces a kidney scheduled for delivery that night. Death soon descends on the hospital as a mob boss and an injured convict (Arquette) terrorize patients, while Mandy and Regina scramble to replace the lost organ by any means necessary. Nothing is off the table and every patient is at risk as Mandy fights to restore order and appease the ruthless black market bosses. Formats: DVD, Blu-ray, VOD. (Magnolia Home Entertainment).
