More war classics from the Fox library,
Four disc DVD set of classic war movies from the 20th Century-Fox library. Each film is pressed on a separate disc. Great for fans of old war movies, this set is really only let down by its complete lack of any kind of substantive special features.
The Blue Max (1966/Color/150 minutes/Widescreen)
George Peppard stars as an overly ambitious German pilot who wants nothing more than to win his country’s highest medal during World War I. Ursula Andress, James Mason and some thrilling flying scenes co-star. Special features are limited to trailers for other Fox war movies.
The Desert Fox (1951/B&W/88 minutes/Fullscreen)
James Mason stars as German Field Marshal Erwin Rommel in a film that is primarily focused on Rommel’s involvement in the plot to kill Hitler. Special features are limited to trailers for other Fox war movies.
Immortal Sergeant (1943/B&W/90 minutes/Fullscreen)
Henry Fonda stars as a somewhat reluctant corporal who must lead a lost, wounded and starving British patrol back to their base in North Africa. Special features are limited to trailers for other Fox war movies.
Sink the Bismarck (1960/B&W/97 minutes/Widescreen)
Fact-based story of the hunt for the German battleship Bismarck. Stars Kenneth More and Dana Wynter. Special features are limited to a “Movietone” newsclip about the Bismarck and trailers for other Fox war movies.
