intensity that intrigued me enough to put down my drink. For a second. So just looking at the trailer, everything looks boring until Forrest Whitaker

Alfred Hitchcock (Box Set) – February 6
I know a bunch of you really dig the Hitchhock so you should be a bit stoked for this. Lionsgate is releasing the silent films THE RING and THE MAXMAN as
well as MURDER!, THE SKIN GAME and apparently Hitchcock’s personal favorite, RICH AND STRANGE. There’s also a new featurette, “Pure Cinema: The Birth of the
Hitchcock Style” featuring interviews with Peter Bogdanovich and Pat Hitchcock as well as never before seen home movies from Hitchcock’s early days.
The Ring and The Maxman feature new Stereo soundtracks, and the others are presented in the original Mono with optional Spanish subtitles.
