One of the most satisfying comedies of 2015 — on at least
two levels — is writer/director Nancy Meyers’ The Intern, teaming
Oscar-winner Robert De Niro (Godfather: Part II and Raging
Bull) with Oscar-winner Anne Hathaway (Les Misérables).
Warner Bros. Home Entertainment announced this past week
that The
Intern will be making its way to the home entertainment market place on
Jan. 19 and both DVD and Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack editions.
The ARR is an industry average 116 days and box office
receipts totaled $74.6 million.
Bonus goodies include the featurette “Learning From
Experience,” which is common to both the DVD and Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack SKUs,
and two additional featurettes — “Designs on Life” and “The Three Interns” —
which are exclusive to the Blu-ray edition.
Also announced by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment this week
is the career-saving film from director Scott Cooper, Black Mass.
The career saved: Johnny Depp, who could get an Oscar
nomination for his performance as career criminal James “Whitey” Bulger. After Dark Shadows, The Lone Ranger, Into
the Woods and Mortdecai it look as though the only
films that Depp could appear in — that were commercially successfully — would
have to do with pirates (hint: another one is on the way in 2017). Black Mass breaks that streak … he
is brilliant here!
Warner Bros. has selected Feb. 16 as the release date for
DVD and Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack editions, which yields a leisurely 151 days for
the ARR. Box office receipts were a
respectable $62.6 million.
Common to both release versions is the featurette titled,
“Johnny Depp: Becoming Whitey Bulger.”
Exclusive to the Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack are two additional featurettes —
“The Manhunt for Whitey Bulger” and “Black Mass: Deepest Cover, Darkest Crime.”
