Founded in 1923 by four brothers, Harry, Albert, Sam and Jack Warner, the Warner Bros. studio. lives up to its name! After establishing itself as a leader in the American film industry, the company then diversified into animation, television and video games, and is now part of the “Big Five”, the five major American studios, alongside Universal, Paramount, Disney and Sony.
To celebrate this entire century of legendary and successful films, here are two box sets not to be missed. On the one hand, Warner offers you a first volume of 25 classics that have marked the history of cinema, from the first talking film (The Jazz Singer, 1927) to the advent of the New Hollywood movement (Bonnie & Clyde, 1967). ).
The theme here: the technical revolutions of the 1930s (King Kong, The Wizard of Oz) and the great moments of history (Casablanca, The Conquest of the West) which featured undisputed stars including Humphrey Bogart, Elizabeth Taylor, John Wayne, Judy Garland, Cary Grant, Ingrid Bergman, Marlon Brando, Bette Davis and even James Dean, in front of the cameras of geniuses Orson Welles, Alfred Hitchcock, Elia Kazan and John Ford. This is promising.
The second box set presents 25 great films that have marked the genre of comedy and romance, from the golden age of the 1950s (An American in Paris) to the latest musical successes (Elvis), including the greatest love stories (On the Road to Madison). Here, it’s about emotions, from the laughs of Hangover to the tears of A Long Engagement Sunday, from the birth of stars, whether Judy Garland or Lady Gaga, to their rebirth with Gene Kelly or Jean Dujardin again.
And that’s not all, each box set consists of a 32-page booklet in French accompanying each of the films offered and including filming anecdotes, production notes, directors’ comments, original posters and set photos: there are something to impress!
