Jay Craven's THE YEAR THAT TREMBLED is a dramatic coming-of-age film set against the turbulent era of civil unrest in early 1970s America. On May 4, 1970, a group of teenaged friends find their lives forever changed when four college students are shot and killed by the Ohio National Guard during an antiwar protest at Kent State University. Fresh out of high school and fearing the draft, introspective Casey Pedersen (Jonathan Brandis) and his friends (Charlie Finn, Sean Nelson, and Lucas Ford) find themselves caught up in the sociopolitical upheaval when they shelter a young activist involved with the protest. Meanwhile, their next-door neighbor and former high school teacher Helen Gardner (Marin Hinkle) also struggles with war-related complications--she has been fired from her job because of her antiwar activities, and her lawyer husband is launching a civil suit on behalf of the Kent State victims. Weaving actual footage from the period throughout the dramatic action, THE YEAR THAT TREMBLED examines the effects of real-world politics on the lives of individuals.DVD Features:Region [unknown]Keep Case

Billy Bob Thornton's ALL THE PRETTY HORSES is about John Grady Cole (Matt Damon), a young rancher growing up just after WWII. After his mother sells the family ranch, John convinces his best friend, Lacey Rawlins (Henry Thomas), to accompany him to Mexico, where ranching is still a big part of life. Along the way they meet Jimmy Blevins (Lucas Black), a winningly enthusiastic boy with a volatile nature. Eventually, John and Lacey end up on a huge ranch south of the border, where John falls for the wealthy rancher's daughter (Penelope Cruz). This leads to deadly trouble for the two young men, but John won't be dissuaded from pursuing his new love. Thornton has made a credible modern Western with this film, which gets strong performances from Damon, Cruz, Thomas, and, in a star-making turn, Black as the fiery Blevins. ALL THE PRETTY HORSES is at its best when focusing on the dusty details of the ranchers' hard existence. Barry Markowitz's cinematography and Ted Tally's script (based on Cormac McCarthy's much-loved novel) capture a sweet and melancholy flavor in depicting a way of life that seemed long since lost even while a hardy few were still living it.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseAnamorphic Widescreen - 1.85Single Side - Dual LayerAudio: Dolby Digital 5.1 - English Dolby Digital 2.0 - EnglishAdditional Release Material: Trailers - 1.Original Theatrical TrailerText/Photo Galleries: Production Notes Talent Files
