Danny Corkill, Diane Keaton, Jennifer Dundas, Matthew Modine, Mel Gibson, Trini Alvarado - Director: Gillian Armstrong Set in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in 1901, this drama depicts a true story that shocked contemporary society.
Kate Soffel is a warden's wife so full of Christian values that she regularly visits her husband's jail, handing out bibles and attempting to reform the convicts. But Ed Biddle, a rather seductive young man who claims he's been wrongly convicted of murder, leads the repressed Mrs. Soffel into temptation. She decides to help him and his brother escape, and even though it complicates their getaway and puts them at greater risk, Ed persuades Kate to run away with them to Canada. A woman who distributes Bibles to prison inmates has an affair with one of them, and later helps him to escape. Set in Pittsburgh during the turn of the century. This was Australian director Gillian Armstrong's first American film.
Shot on location in the U.S. and Canada. Color by Metrocolor.
Additional cast: Pippa Pearthree (Maggie), William Youmans (Guard Koslow), Joyce Ebert (Matron Garvey), John W. Carroll (Guard McGarey), Les Rubie (Mr. Stevenson). Mrs. Soffel Reviews: "...[The filmmakers] have done an interesting job of conjuring up an unusual time and place, and Les Rubie and Paula Trueman are quite wonderful..."

Despite his weak eyesight, Rudyard Kipling's son Jack was determined to serve in the military during World War I. Unlike many parents, Kipling was adamant that his son have the opportunity to see action and uphold the values that were a constant motif in his writing. By way of influence Jack finally made it to the front, never to return, and Kipling would spend years of his life trying to uncover his son's fate. This Masterpiece Theatre production is the story of one aspect of the writer's life that was more tragic than anything depicted in his adventure stories. Daniel Radcliffe takes off Harry Potter's robes to star in this serious drama.
In 1914, Rudyard Kipling (David Haig) is at the peak of his literary fame and is the British Empire's greatest supporter. With World War I fast approaching, Kipling's son, Jack (Daniel Radcliffe), is determined to serve his country but finds himself rejected due to his extremely poor ...

Mysterious, troubled, and brilliant--Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky created an emotional array of compositions that captured both his inner demons as well as the time period he lived through. While facts about his life, and particularly his homosexual affairs, are difficult to come by, this dramatic interpretation is blended with a documentary approach led by acclaimed composer Charles Hazlewood. It's both a creative imagining of what Tchaikovsky's turmoil might have been like as well as a ...

This set contains four feature films based on the novels of Zane Grey.
THE DUDE RANGER: George O'Brien stars in this rousing western as Ernest Selby, a city boy from back east who inherits a cattle ranch infested with rustlers. He rides out intending to sell the place, but sticks around to get to the bottom of things when he falls for Anne (Irene Hervey), the lovely daughter of ranch foreman Sam Hepburn (Henry Hall). Matters get more complicated when Ernest suspects Sam is behind the rustling. He needs to do some serious fighting and detective work to catch the crooks, and in the process turns from city slicker to bona fide western hero.
FIGHTING WESTERNER: In this classic western, a mining engineer and an aging sheriff must join forces to solve a series of murders which occur at an abandoned mine. Complicating matters, the mine's owner is on the verge of death, and his family hovers nearby, waiting for him to expire, to investigate the possible discovery of radium in the mine.
