A special collection of film icon Marilyn Monroe`s greatest films, ranging from the musical extravaganzas GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES (1953) and THERE`S NO BUSINESS LIKE SHOW BUSINESS (1954) to Billy Wilder`s farce THE SEVEN YEAR ITCH (1955) to the romantic comedies HOW TO MARRY A MILLIONAIRE (1953) and BUS STOP (1956). Both the VHS and DVD box sets include a bonus sixth feature, MARILYN MONROE: THE FINAL DAYS, a documentary about the star`s unfinished final film project, SOMETHING`S GOT TO GIVE. This romantic comedy, directed by George Cukor and co-starring Dean Martin and Cyd Charisse, was plagued with production difficulties and went over schedule and budget until Marilyn was fired. Forty minutes of footage, including Marilyn`s famous swimming-pool scene, have been restored for this special never-before-seen presentation.

Dream Lover (DVD)
Roger has fantasies of meeting the perfect girl, but these are given an overhaul when Tabitah enters his life. His initial attempts at wooing the stunning Tabitah are outright failures, leaving Roger`s heart wounded and his spirit crushed. Roger trades in his geeky glasses for a pair of shades and pursues this special creature by trying to be the man of her dreams. This low budget production toys with audience expectations of what is real and what is fantasy and offers lots of lessons in romance on the side.NR"

Based on Andre Cayatte`s 1958 film LE MIROIR A DEUX FACES, THE MIRROR HAS TWO FACES finds Barbra Streisand directing her third motion picture, casting herself in the lead as Rose Morgan and Jeff Bridges as Professor Gregory Larkin, her foil. Morgan and Larkin, two cerebral Columbia professors, commit to a perfectly sensible but passionless paper marriage based on their intellectual common ground. The earth moves, however, when Rose redesigns her look in order to invoke the hots in her spouse and bolster her sagging self-esteem. This feel-good romance finds Streisand a little older but still the eager ingenue, ready to blush at her suitor`s chivalrous blunders or bristle at her crabby mother (Lauren Bacall). Like SABRINA, a film almost 40 years older, MIRROR focuses on a woman`s transformation from dusty house-mouse to glamorous cosmopolitan citizen, which only serves to confuse the man instead of creating respect or admiration. Jeff Bridges`s charming performance is endearing, and Streisand and Bryan Adams`s love ballad, I Finally Found Someone, sets the mood for a very romantic film.
PG-13"
Director: Barbra Streisand
ACTORS: Barbra Streisand, Lauren Bacall, Jeff Bridges, Pierce Brosnan, George Segal
