Edge of Darkness - BLU-RAY

In 1930, director Lewis Milestone won an Academy Award * for his eloquent anti-war masterpiece, All Quiet on the Western Front. But with Edge of Darkness, made in 1943 during the dark days of the German blitzkrieg, Milestone displays no such pacifist sentiments. Indeed, this remarkable drama, set in a small Norwegian village, pays tribute to the heroic spirit of common people taking up arms against the Nazi invaders. Errol Flynn delivers a fine, understated performance as a common fisherman who leads the town's resistance efforts. Ann Sheridan's strong character reflects the strength of all womankind. And featured in the superb ensemble cast are Walter Huston, Ruth Gordon and Judith Anderson.

After surviving a massacre in Albania, Ilir is angry and out for revenge. He enters a Mafia-sponsored underground fight-club, the Blood Sport, where the fights are to death. However, now a mysterious killer armed with deadly blades targets the surviving fighters outside the arena. Now he must discover the motive behind the killer before the killer comes for him.

The bullet that killed his daughter was meant for Boston cop Thomas Craven. That's what police brass and Craven think, but that's not what the investigation finds. With clue after clue and witness after witness, the search leads him into a shadowy realm where money and political intrigue intersect. If Craven wasn't a target before, he -- and anyone linked to his inquiry -- now is. Mel Gibson stars in his first screen lead in eight years, making Craven's grief palpable and his quest for payback stone-cold and relentless. Martin Campbell (Casino Royale) directs from a screenplay written by Andrew Bovell and The Departed's William Monahan. Gibson is back, taking us to the edge and into the sinister darkness.
