The Film Detective goes
Hi-Def on Nov. 25 with a trio of newly restored classic film selections making
their debut on the Blu-ray format.
First up is director
Steve Sekely’s 1948 film noir
adaptation of the Murray Forbes novel, Hollow Triumph. Paul Henreid stars as a murderer on the run
who hits upon the perfect hide-in-plain-sight identity … only to fall victim to
his on cleverness. Joan Bennett
co-stars.
Humphrey Bogart joins Peter Lorre, Robert Morley, Jennifer Jones and Gina Lollobrigida in director John Huston’s conmen-conning-conmen comedy, Beat the Devil (the script was provided by none other than Truman Capote).
And lastly, Herbert J.
Biberman’s 1954 historical drama, Salt of the Earth — starring Will
Geer — will be available for the first time as a newly-restored Blu-ray product
offering.
