"Elvis: MGM Movie Legends Collection," "Frank Sinatra: Legends Collection
July 23, 2007
Two of Hollywood’s greatest crossover artists get boxed-set treatment. A four-disc set has four of Elvis Presley’s 1960s music romps: the boxing tale "Kid Galahad," the prince-and-the-pauper story "Clambake," the Florida comedy "Follow That Dream" and the riverboat romance "Frankie and Johnny." Five of Sinatra’s films are gathered from the 1950s and ’60s, anchored by John Frankenheimer’s disturbing assassination thriller "The Manchurian Candidate."
Also in the set: "Guys and Dolls," the musical pairing Sinatra and Marlon Brando as fast-living gamblers; "A Hole in the Head," with Sinatra and Edward G. Robinson in a family comedy directed by Frank Capra; "Kings Go Forth," starring Sinatra, Tony Curtis and Natalie Wood in a Second World War love-triangle drama; and "The Pride and the Passion," teaming Cary Grant and Sophia Loren with Sinatra in a Napoleonic-era epic.
