In a future totalitarian and oppressive society, where books are forbidden, Guy Montag (Oskar Werner) is a fireman. The mission of firemen in this society with fireproof houses is to burn books at 451 Fahrenheit, the temperature of combustion of paper. Montag is married with Linda (Julie Christie), a futile woman that joins 'The Family' through the interactive television. When Montag meets Clarisse (Julie Christie, in a double role), she questions him if he has never read a book, and Montag becomes curious. He decides to steal and read a book, twisting his view of life. He leaves his former way of life and escapes to 'the city of the books' with Clarisse.

TWILIGHT ZONE: WALKING DISTANCE (1959). Martin Sloan (Gig Young), a 36-year-old executive, stops in a fuel station. He's very confused, behaves in a strange way and makes a lot of noise to get the attention from the employee. Far away is the sight of his native town, Homewood, and he's very curious about all the kinds of things that shaped his childhood. Martin adventures to take a closer look, and first he goes to an old shop where he used to get a large-sized ice cream. Martin gets surprised to see that the old attendant still runs the place, with old prices. Walking in the streets, Martin meets with a kid, who is his old neighbor. It is then that he finds he's in 1934, when he was only 15-years-old. Things get complicated when he bumps into the young Martin, follows him to his house and meets with his parents. They won't believe him when Martin says he's in fact their grown up son. Later, Martin insists in talking with young Martin. He finds him in a carousel, where the child gets hurt after falling from there and subsequently has a talk with his father. Martin will learn that every man has his own time and is perhaps better off not looking to the past.

MYSTERIOUS ISLAND

Mon, 25 Sep 2023 07:46:39 EST

$19.95

Composed by: Bernard Herrmann

William Stromberg conducts the Moscow Symphony Orchestra. Score restoration by John Morgan, Anna Bonn and William Stromberg. Deluxe 32 page booklet.

Mysterious Island (UK: Jules Verne's Mysterious Island) was released in 1961 by Morningside Productions. Based upon the book The Mysterious Island (L'Île mystérieuse) by Jules Verne, it was produced by Charles Schneer and Ray Harryhausen. Directed by Cy Endfield, the film was released through Columbia Pictures. It was filmed in Shepperton Studios, Shepperton, England using SuperDynamation, which was a showcase for Harryhausen's animation effects. Like several of Harryhausen's classic productions, the soundtrack was provided by Bernard Herrmann.

The film centers around escaping Union soldiers from a Confederate prison camp during the American Civil War in a hot air balloon. They end up crashing in the ocean, only to find themselves washed up on an unknown island where gigantic animals abound. It would later be revealed that the animals were experiments of the presumed-dead Captain Nemo, who is an unknown benefactor to the castaways as they struggle to survive on the island. After a skirmish with pirates, the stranded group manages to escape from the island on the pirate's ship.

The highlights of the film were Ray Harryhausen's animation sequences. The different animated 'monsters' that the castaways encountered were: a giant crab, a giant flightless bird (a prehistoric bird called a Phorusrhacos) which most viewers thought was a chicken, giant bees and a giant cephalopod called a Chambered Nautiloid.

THE PRINCE AND THE PAUPER (COMPLETE 1937 SCORE)

Wed, 08 Dec 2021 10:00:28 EST

$19.95

Composed by: Erich Wolfgang Korngold

William Stromberg conducts The Moscow Symphony Orchestra.

Complete re-recording of the 1937 score. 32 page deluxe booklet. �Korngold�s score is reminiscent of music for a commedia dell�arte; it is sparkling, humorous, and heartwarming, capturing all the naiveté of childhood, the regal splendor of the court, and the demeaning poverty of Tudor England,� says the composer�s son, George Korngold.

Korngold�s signature talents are in full evidence in this score: elaborate percussion, joyous trumpets, plaintive French horns, ethereal strings, angelic harps, playful piccolos, rollicking piano. All come together in this full-bodied work that encompasses royal pageantry, wry humor, heartrending tenderness and, of course, the exuberantly dizzying action scoring for which Korngold is well known.
