CRITERION
SET TO RELEASE TO RELEASE TWO STURGES DVD's
Criterion
has scheduled 21 August 2001 as the street
date for Sullivan's Travels and
The Lady Eve on DVD, under license from
Universal Home Video.
Criterion has worked very closely
with the family to ensure that these two
releases will be nothing short
of amazing - and they have succeeded. In
addition to the digital quality
motion pictures, there will be never before
heard home recordings of Mr. Sturges
at his piano and the complete 90 minute
version of the Emmy Award winning
American Masters documentary The Rise And
Fall Of An American Dreamer. Likewise
there will be an introduction by film
critic and auteur (and Sopranos
star) Peter Bogdonovich. An interview with
Mrs. Sturges will also be included.
Original artwork and technical credits
are perfect.
We are very thankful for the lengths Criterion has gone to ensure
that this
release is one of their finest, and are particularly appreciative
of the
efforts of the DVD's producer, Ms. Johanna Schiller.
