Based on a novel by crime writer Ed McBain, this made-for-television film stars Brian Dennehy as lawyer and shellshocked Vietnam veteran Matthew Hope. When three Vietnamese immigrants are found brutally murdered in south Florida, blame falls on Hope's old war buddy Stephen Leeds (John Doman). Leeds had once saved Hope's life in Vietnam, and now the lawyer repays the favor by coming to his friend's defense. But as Hope battles a tough prosecuting attorney (Mary Stuart Masterson) and Leeds' suspiciously motivated wife (Debrah Farentino), he makes a startling discovery about Leed's wartime experiences that shakes his belief in his friend's innocence.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Dolby Digital Stereo - EnglishInteractive Features: Scene Access Interactive Menus

Jessica Lange stars as army wife Carly Marshall in Tony Richardson's last film, set in the early 1960s. Carly, a very beautiful woman, spices up the drabness of military life with the kind of promiscuity and exhibitionist behavior that has kept her husband, Hank (Tommy Lee Jones), from getting the promotions he's due while embarrassing her children, Glen (Chris O'Donnell) and Chris (Amy Locane), and keeping the family moving from one base to another as Carly wears out their welcome. After their most recent move to a base in Alabama, Carly starts flirting with base commander Gen. Vince Johnson (Powers Boothe) at the officers club and the general suddenly realizes that this would be the perfect time for Hank, an expert on atomic power, to go to Nevada to monitor some underground tests. Although he knows what's going on, Hank must obey, and Vince wastes no time in getting horizontal with Carly. When Hank uncovers evidence that civilians are being exposed to massive doses of radiation by leakage from the underground tests, everyone's life becomes even more complicated. Lange and Jones both do some of the best work of their careers in roles of a richness and complexity more often seen on the stage than in films. Richardson's BLUE SKY is a terrific finale for a unique talent.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseWidescreen - 1.85Single Side - Single LayerAudio: Dolby Surround - English Dolby Surround - French Dolby Surround - SpanishAdditional Release Material: Trailers - 1.

Notorious Puerto Rican heroin dealer Carlito Brigante (Al Pacino) is released from jail on a technicality thanks to the manipulations of his sleazy lawyer buddy (Sean Penn). All he wants is to keep his nose clean and earn enough money to start a business in the Bahamas--and maybe rekindle romance with his old flame, played by Penelope Ann Miller. Instead he finds himself back in trouble as a result of old-world codes of honor and misguided loyalties. It all takes place in 1975 Manhattan, in and around a nightclub Carlito manages, so there`s plenty of classic disco music pulsing on the soundtrack. John Leguizamo plays one of the younger generation of hoodlums out to prove something. Viggo Mortensen and Luis Guzman star as a couple of Carlito s buddies from the old days. Brian De Palma, who directed Pacino a decade earlier in SCARFACE, makes this seem almost like that film s sequel. As expected, there`s plenty of elaborate tracking shots and suspenseful set pieces, most memorably a pulse-pounding chase through Grand Central Station. It s adapted from two novels by New York Supreme Court Judge Edwin Torres based on his childhood in East Harlem.
