Further Details:
Warner Home Video has sent over details on The Astaire and Rogers Collection: Volume Two, which will be released on the 17th of October at a retail price of around $59.92. This collection of films, along with last year's The Astaire and Rogers Collection: Volume One, completes the entire series of films in which the duo starred together. The films included in this collection are: Carefree, Flying Down To Rio, The Gay Divorcee, Roberta and The Story of Vernon and Irene Castle. All five films are new to DVD, have been newly remastered, and will also be available separately at a retail price of $19.97. Also being offered on the same day is Astaire and Rogers Ultimate Collector’s Edition, which features all ten of their films along with the documentary 'Astaire and Rogers: Partners in Rhythm', a glorious salute that includes candid photos, behind-the-scene tidbits and sidelights about famed collaborators Irving Berlin, Jerome Kern and George Gershwin, among others. This edition includes an exclusive bonus audio CD with 10 soundtrack songs from the team’s movies, set of collectible behind-the-scenes photo cards, reproductions of the Shall We Dance and Roberta press books and a mail-in offer for four Astaire and Rogers movie posters. The 12-disc giftset will retail for $99.92. For consumers who already own Volume One, a special Ultimate Collector’s Edition will be available at a retal price to be determined which will contain empty sleeves for the five remastered and restored films released last year. We should have the artwork shortly, but for now we've attached the new collection's list of extras below.
