Man Hunt (Blu-ray)

Available via ScreenArchives.com
Twilight Time, Drama, $29.95 Blu-ray, NR.
Stars Walter Pidgeon, Joan Bennett, George Sanders, John Carradine.
1941.
This significant hit in Fritz Lang’s career is a most entertaining suspense thriller with a dramatically tantalizing table-setter: How might the life of a sportsman/hunter played by Walter Pidgeon have changed in 1939 had he squeezed the trigger when he had Adolf Hitler in his rifle site?
Extras: The isolated music track, a Twilight Time staple, showcases Alfred Newman’s score, which makes some use of “A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square.”

Stars Russ Tamblyn, Jan Sterling, John Barrymore Jr., Diane Jergens.
1958.
