SHADOW MAKERS
In the remote desert of New Mexico, ‘The Manhattan Project’ is materializing – the World War II effort to build the atomic bomb. Oscar® Winner Paul Newman stars as General Leslie Groves, the military man in charge of a massive project that will produce two weapons: ‘Fat Man’ and ‘Little Boy’. Dwight Schultz is J Robert Oppenheimer, the brilliant scientist attempting to bring the startling mission to fruition. And Bonnie Bedelia, John Cusack, Laura Dern and Natasha Richardson co-star in this ‘stunning…profoundly moving’ film (Michael Medved, Sneak Previews) that recreates one of history’s most compelling chapters…one that resulted in the mushroom-shaped specter that changed the world forever.
THE HUSTLER - SPECIAL EDITION
"Newman is outstanding." -Leonard Maltin's Movie & Video Guide
Paul Newman is electrifying as Fast Eddie Felson, an arrogant, amoral hustler who haunts backstreet pool rooms fleecing anyone who'll pick up a cue. Determined to be acclaimed as the best, Eddie seeks out the legendary Minnesota Fats, who's backed by Bert Gordon, a predatory gambler. Eddie can beat the champ, but virtually defeats himself with his low self-image. The love of a lonely woman could turn Eddie's life around, but he won't rest until he beats Minnesota Fats, no matter what price he must pay.
Voted one of the year's ten best by "The New York Times" and "Time," and distinguished by 2 Academy Awards - Cinematography, Art Direction-Set Decoration (B&W), The Hustler is a dazzling cinematic triumph.
