Product Details:
Cool Hand Luke:A defiant chain-gang prisoner suffers a failure to communicate in this searing drama. Paul Newman shines in the title role, George Kennedy as his sidekick won an Oscar(R).Bullitt:Detective Frank Bullit’s new assignment seems routine: protecting a star witness for an important trial. But before the night is out, the witness lies dying and the cool, no-nonsense Bullitt (Steve McQueen) won’t rest until the shooters – and the kingpin pulling their strings – are nailed. From opening shot to closing shootout, Bullitt crackles with authenticity: on-location San Francisco filming, crisp dialogue and to-the-letter police, hospital and morgue procedures. An Oscar winner for Best Film Editing (1968), this razor-edged thriller features one of cinema history’s most memorable car chases. Buckle up…and brace for unbeatable action. Get Carter:When Jack Carter comes to Newcastle to inquire about his brother’s mysterious death, racketeers think they can threaten him, rough him up, shoo him away like a fly. Which shows they don’t know jack about Carter. Double Academy Award winner Michael Caine plays the relentless title character in this gritty neo-noir (Sylvester Stallone stars in a 2000 remake). Caine’s Carter is a sharp portrait of cold-blooded precision as he connects the dots of a cover-up that leads to a pornography ring (John Osbourne, whose Look Back in Anger launched Britain’s Angry Young Men era, plays the flesh peddler’s ringleader). Revenge is sweet for Carter. But in the hard world of latter-day film noir, sweet is sure to turn suddenly, violently sour.
