Agatha Christie's Poirot - The New Mysteries Collection (DVD)
The world Agatha Christie conjures up is populated by sleuths, criminal masterminds, and dastardly plots just waiting to be unleashed on an unsuspecting world. One such inhabitant is Hercule Poirot, who loves nothing more than sniffing out a new mystery, solving it, and bringing the perpetrators to justice. Four Poirot movies are gathered here: The first, Death on the Nile finds a murderer on board a cruise ship, and Poirot hot on his heels. Secondly comes Sad Cypress, in which Poirot comes up with an inventive way to crack a case that seems obvious, but is actually far from it. The Hollow takes place during a weekend retreat, with Poirot acting as peacemaker, while, lastly, Five Little Pigs offers the super sleuth the chance to prove a woman's innocence, even though a decade has passed since she died.DVD Features:Region (unknown)Box SetAudio: (unspecified) - EnglishInteractive Features: Scene Access Interactive MenusText/Photo Galleries: Biographies - Agatha Christie - Author

Humphrey Bogart Collection (DVD)
Includes four of Bogey's most unforgettable films:THE MALTESE FALCON: Hard-drinking private eye Sam Spade sleuths the backyard of San Francisco in search of an elusive black bird statuette while evading the setups of three disparate miscreants: the duplicitous Brigid, the perfumed Mr. Cairo, and the scheming Fat Man. Huston's brilliant directorial debut is aided by first-rate performances, excellent camera work, as well as the director's acute attention to detail while shooting the film. Based on the crime novel by Dashiell Hammett. Academy Award Nominations: 3, including Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor (Sydney Greenstreet), and Best Screenplay. Previous versions of the story were filmed in 1931 (a.k.a. DANGEROUS FEMALE) and in 1936 (as SATAN MET A LADY, starring Bette Davis), and poorly redone in 1975 (THE BLACK BIRD).CASABLANCA: Perennially at the top of every all-time-greats list, and indisputably one of the landmarks of the American cinema. Bogart is an American expatriate and war profiteer in WW II Morocco, content to merely run the Cafe Americain until love (in the form of a luminous Bergman) returns to his life and inspires him to stand up for the French Resistance. An accidental Hollywood masterpiece, it just gets better as time goes by.THE BIG SLEEP: Chandler's first novel introduced private detective Philip Marlowe, and The Big Sleep set the standard for private detective movies. Down-at-the-heels private eye Marlowe gets the assignment to clean up after the daughters of a dying millionaire, but dead people have a nasty habit of trailing in their wake. The famously tortuous story line (Hawks supposedly asked Chandler to clarify a plot point about the murder of the family chauffeur; the novelist hadn't a clue as to who did the deed) seems beside the point when Bogart and Bacall are onscreen. The final release was recut to include more of their scenes together.KEY LARGO: Captivating cinematic adaptation of the play by Maxw
