A gambler who trusted no one… A woman who risked everything… And a passion that brought them together in the most dangerous city in the world! From Sydney Pollack, the outstanding director of They Shoot Horses, Don’t They?, The Yakuza, Three Days of the Condor, Absence of Malice, Tootsie and The Firm, comes this epic drama set in pre-Castro Cuba. High-rolling poker player Jack Weil (Robert Redford, The Natural) is trying to make one big score in 1958 Havana, a pleasure-seeker’s paradise on the verge of revolution. But his plan doesn’t include falling for Roberta (Lena Olin, Romeo Is Bleeding), the beautiful, enigmatic wife of revolutionary Arturo Duran (Raul Julia, The Addams Family). After Arturo is removed by the police, Jack is drawn closer to Roberta, who ignites a passion that threatens his last chance for the big score. The top-notch cast includes Alan Arkin (The In-Laws), Tomas Milian (The Big Gundown), Richard Farnsworth (The Grey Fox), Tony Plana (¡Three Amigos!), Mark Rydell (The Long Goodbye) and Dennis Farina (Manhunter). Havana received an Oscar nomination for Best Original Score by the great Dave Grusin (Fuzz, The Milagro Beanfield War).

A young boy learns that space aliens are taking over the minds of earthlings. FROM OUT OF SPACE... CAME HORDES OF GREEN MONSTERS!! In the early 1950s, Cold War tensions and the burgeoning space race created a heady mix of paranoia and unbridled creativity as filmmakers speculated as to the marvels - and horrors - that lay beyond the stars. Among those leading the charge, William Cameron Menzies' (Things to Come) Invaders from Mars terrified audiences upon its release in 1953 with its chilling vision of an insidious alien attack on small-town Americana. On a dark and stormy night, a young boy, David McLean (Jimmy Hunt, Pitfall), observes what appears to be a flying saucer crash-landing in his town. Shortly thereafter, the grown-ups - including his own parents - begin acting decidedly strangely. Convinced there's a link between this epidemic of bizarre behavior and what he witnessed that night, David turns to local health official Dr. Blake (Helena Carter, Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye) for help. But can these two unlikely heroes, together with famed astronomer Dr. Kelston (Arthur Franz, The Caine Mutiny), withstand the might of a full-blown invasion from outer space? A landmark in sci-fi cinema, Invaders from Mars inspired filmmakers as wide-ranging as Don Coscarelli (Phantasm), Brad Bird (The Iron Giant) and John Carpenter (The Thing). Now fully restored for its 70th anniversary, this trend-setting Atom Age classic unleashes its spine-tingling terror on a whole new generation of filmgoers in this brand new Blu-ray presentation remastered in HD from Ignite Films!
