Content
Films featured in this 6-disc Cary Grant/Fox set are:

'Born to Be Bad' (1934) - drama with Loretta Young (2-plus stars)
'I Was a Male War Bride' (1949) - comedy with Ann Sheridan, directed by Howard Hawks (3 stars)
'People Will Talk' (1951) - drama with Jeanne Crain, directed by Joseph Mankiewicz (4 stars)

I consider Grant one of the giants (among Bogart, Stewart, Wayne, Tracy, Cooper and Cagney) of the golden age, but while PWT and AATR are very good, this is not a 'best of' collection by any means. All have been released on DVD previously.

Pretty Good Grant Collection!
This is a pretty good Cary Grant collection with a few of his best with Fox. As noted in past Fox box-sets there design is not the best and sometimes the packaging gets torn and the disks may or will have scratches, but I have bought seven of their collections and I haven't had any problems with them. This collection has two sleeves with three films on Vol 1 and three on Vol 2.

The details of the films included as in aspect ratio, runtime, color/b&w, etc. are as followed.
