Breaking new ground in a TV-land that still bore a resemblance to the rose-tinted, apple-pie version of America that dominated screens in the 1950s and 60s, ALL IN THE FAMILY debuted in 1971 and proceeded to address its controversial issues with humor and a refreshing candor. Archie Bunker (Carroll O'Connor) was the openly bigoted and rude patriarch, with conservative views and a stodgy outlook that placed him at odds with almost everyone he encountered. His slightly ditzy wife Edith (Jean Stapleton) was his foil, providing an open-minded and cheerful foundation for the family. Their daughter Gloria (Sally Struthers) also lived in Bunkers' home in Queens, along with her liberal, scholarly husband Mike (Rob Reiner). The storylines broached topics prescient to the times, incorporating politics and racial issues by addressing the Vietnam War, economic injustice, and prejudice with an open humor, framing these topics in bold new ways. Other plots touched upon rape, death, women's issues, homosexuality, and even introduced a scatological humor to the small screen. In season four, a Mexican family moves into the neighborhood, much to Archie's chagrin, and Archie and Edith celebrate their 25th anniversary, rediscovering their love in the process. Edith also finds out that she may have breast cancer. Episodes include Archie, the Gambler, The Taxi Caper, Lionel's Engagement, and Gloria Sings the Blues.DVD Features:Region (unknown)3-Disc Set - Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Mono - English Subtitles - English - Closed Captioning

George Stevens' last film with Cary Grant represents yet another hit in his string of classic comedies. Grant stars as Leopold Dilg, a political activist who is wrongly indicted for arson and murder when a factory worker dies in a mill fire in the town of Sweetbrook. Believing that he'll be executed if he remains in jail, he escapes and breaks into a cottage that schoolteacher Nora Shelley (Jean Arthur) is preparing for Professor Michael Lightcap (Ronald Coleman), the dean of a law school. She allows Grant to stay in the attic, without alerting the professor. The next day, a reporter arrives to question Lightcap about Dilg's case, along with Sam Yates (Edgar Buchanan), Dilg's lawyer, who comes at Nora's behest. Since Yates and Lightcap know each other from law school, Yates asks Lightcap's help in defending his client, who he claims to have been framed. The professor refuses, intent on writing a legal treatise. Before Yates leaves, he persuades Nora to house Dilg, who she introduces to Lightcap as a gardener. Before long, the professor begins to realize that the gardener is well versed in the intricacies and inequities of the U.S. legal system.
Stevens' entertaining romantic triangle, in which the atmosphere of legal debate is leavened by wit, and low comedy, is brilliantly played by all, especially an atypically dark and impulsive Grant. The director's characteristically deft touch with comic business is evident throughout the film.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Screen - 1.33Audio: Dolby Digital Stereo - EnglishAdditional Release Material: TrailersInteractive Features: Interactive Menus Scene Selection

BABY GENIUSES: When two doctors (Kathleen Turner and Christopher Lloyd) set out to dominate the world once they discover they can crack the code to a secret baby language, it is only two-year-old Sly and his twin brother Whit who can stop them. When their first attempt fails and Sly gets captured, Whit rallies a group of foster babies at the home for special children to rescue Sly and squash the doctor's evil plot. Goofy comedy will appeal to those with a taste for the unusual. Directed by Bob Clark (A CHRISTMAS STORY, PORKY'S.)SUPERBABIES: BABY GENIUSES 2: Combining several different genres (action, sci-fi, comedy, family) to tell one truly outrageous tale, SUPERBABIES: BABY GENIUSES 2 introduces audiences to another set of hyper-smart toddlers who are out to conquer evil. This time around, evil presents itself in the form of Bill Biscane (Jon Voight), a German mass-media giant who is out to brainwash children all over the world through his seemingly innocent television show. But before he gets his chance, a figure from Biscane's past shows up to torment him once again. His name is Kahuna, and although he's pint-sized, he's got the brains and tools to battle his arch-nemesis. This time around, Kahuna must rely on four members of Stan (Scott Baio) and Jean (Vanessa Angel) Bobbins's nursery to help him save the day: Archie, Finkleman, Rosita, and Alex. Featuring a hilariously campy performance from Jon Voight, Clark's sequel also ups the action ante, resulting in an entertaining comedy for children of all ages.
