Co-directors Gene Kelly and Stanley Donen (SINGIN' IN THE RAIN) also choreographed this musical classic following three sailors docked in New York City for twenty-four hours. New to town and ready to see the sights--and the girls--Kelly, Frank Sinatra, and Jules Munshin search for adventure in the Big Apple. Wooing the ladies with their singing and dancing and being charmed in return, the trio finds various degrees of romantic success. But as all good things must come to an end, the navy men return to their ship, leaving behind them a city briefly brighter and taking with them a heartful of memories.Dancing by the marvelous and masculine Kelly and singing by heartthrob Sinatra (looking very young!) add punch and pizzazz to the musical numbers, including the famous New York, New York scene. ON THE TOWN was one of the first movies filmed on location in New York--a wild extravagance in those days--and the extra effort taken shows in every shot of the film.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Single Side - Single LayerAudio: Dolby Digital Mono - English Dolby Digital Mono - FrenchAdditional Release Material: Theatrical TrailerInteractive Features: Scene Access Interactive Menus

Wagner`s DER FLIEGENDE HOLLANDER (The Flying Dutchman) is rendered in magnificent style here. Matti Salminen is well known for his interpretations of Wagner`s works, and returns here to take on the role of Daland. Joined by a stellar cast, which includes Lisbeth Balslev and Robert Schunk as Senta and Erik respectively, this is a great way to experience one of Wagner`s greatest pieces.

Performed by talented musicians Pandit Shivkumar Sharma and Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia, RAGA BHOOPALI is a peaceful, engaging work of classical Indian music. Playing the santoor--a traditional stringed instrument--as well as the flute and the tabla, the artists present this formally rigorous work in an improvised, spontaneous, and thoroughly enjoyable way. This release is a follow-up to 1967s blockbuster CALL OF THE VALLEY, which was the first thematic recording in Indian classical music, telling the story of a young couple living in the Kashmir Valley. The story of the sequel reflects the changing times, having shed some of the innocence and harmony originally depicted, while the work still aims to inspire peace and love through the medium of music. After 30 years, the standards set by the former are upheld and surpassed by the latter.DVD Features:Region 0Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33
