Last Minute Sales & Specials

"The Essential Steve McQueen Collection" contains "Bullitt," "The Cincinnati Kid," "The Getaway," "Never So Few," "Papillon" and "Tom Horn." "Bullitt" - His new assignment seems routine: protecting a star witness for an important trial. But before the night is out, the witness lies dying and cool, no-nonsense Detective Frank Bullitt (Steve McQueen) won't rest until the shooters and the kingpin pulling their strings are nailed. From opening shot to closing shootout, "Bullitt" crackles with authenticity: San Francisco locations, crisp dialogue and to-the-letter police, hospital and morgue procedures. An Oscar winner for Best Film Editing (1968), this razor-edged thriller features one of cinema history's most memorable car chases. Buckle up and brace for unbeatable action. "The Cincinnati Kid" - Everything's wild and the winner takes it all in "The Cincinnati Kid." 'The Kid' thinks he's the best at five-card-stud. But his opponent, 'The Man' has never been beaten. Their clash is inevitable and it is a duel-to-the-death as to who will be king of the New Orleans' gambling world. "The Getaway" - Master thief Doc McCoy knows his wife has been in bed with the local political boss in order to spring him from jail. What he can't know is the sinister succession of double-crosses that will sour the deal once he's on the outside - and executing the ultimate robbery. Fasten your seat belts and join Steve McQueen and Ali MacGraw in a supreme action thriller based on Jim Thompson's novel. Sam Peckinpah directed, filming on locations across Texas and in sequence - from the opening inside Hunstville State Prison to the explosive El Paso border climax. Once "The Getaway" starts, there's no escaping its breathless intensity. "Never So Few" - Frank Sinatra told the director to give the newcomer a break. John Sturges ("The Great Escape") obliged, providing favorable camera angles for Sinatra's young co-star.
