One of the most popular and versatile actresses of all time, Claudette Colbert dazzles audiences in the pre-code classic Torch Singer. When Sally Trent (Colbert) can no longer support her illegitimate child, she puts her daughter up for adoption and pursues a career as a torch singer. Under the name Mimi Benton, she soon climbs to fame as a sexy nightclub singer and attempts to find her daughter through a children's radio show. Featurin
Nick Nolte (Who'll Stop The Rain, The Prince of Tides), Gene Hackman (Crimson Tide, The French Connection) and Joanna Cassidy (Blade Runner) headline the Roger Spottiswoode (Tomorrow Never Dies) directed political action-thriller, Under Fire. Set in Nicaragua during the last days of the revolution, photojournalist Russell Price (Nolte), reporter Alex Grazier (Hackman) and his girlfriend and fellow journalist Claire (Cassidy) find themselves swept up in political intrigue, romance and the fight to survive near death at every turn. Rounding out the cast are Ed Harris (The Truman Show), Richard Masur (The Mean Season) and Jean-Louis Trintignant (The Conformist).
Musical star Jenny Stewart functions on two emotional levels: demanding and impossible. Only one person will stand up to Jenny: her accompanist, blinded in the war. But it may be Jenny who can't see, not only her own loneliness but also her chance for happiness. Joan Crawford, who began her career as a chorus girl in the 1920s, shows she still has the moves (and the gams) to play Jenny 30 years later. There's more to enjoy in this rolle
