(2012, p1959)., Adult, Criterion Collection Call No: DVD Fic Anatomy Edition: Two-DVD special ed. Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Series Title: Criterion collection Volume: 600Summary Note: "A virtuoso James Stewart plays a small-town Michigan lawyer who takes on a difficult case: that of a young Army lieutenant (Ben Gazzara) accused of murdering the local tavern owner who he believes raped his wife (Lee Remick). This gripping, envelope-pusher, the most popular film by Hollywood provocateur Otto Preminger, was groundbreaking for the frankness of its discussion of sex -- but more than anything else, it is a striking depiction of the power of words. Featuring an outstanding supporting cast -- with a young George C. Scott as a fiery prosecuting attorney and legendary real-life attorney Joseph N. Welch as the judge-and influential jazz score by Duke Ellington, Anatomy of a Murder is a Hollywood landmark; it was nominated for seven Oscars, including Best Picture."--Container.

-- Odyssée de Charles Lindbergh2006., General, Warner Home Video Call No: DVD Fic Spirit St. Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Summary Note: "On May 21, 1927, the world changed. 'Lucky Lindy' landed outside Paris. And people who previously talked about the limitations of air travel suddenly dreamed of its limitless possibilities. The Spirit of St. Louis is six-time Academy Awardª winner Billy Wilder's recreation of the struggles and success of Charles A. Lindbergh, the pioneering flyboy who, like test pilots and astronauts to follow later, had the 'right stuff' of aviation heroism. Lindbergh fan James Stewart, himself a pilot, sought the role - and was initially turned down. But his persistence paid off, as Stewart added Lindy to his gallery of indelible portrayals of American heroes. He and Wilder together manned the cockpit of a stirring epic entertainment."--Container.
