Steve McQueen Collection (4-disc)

THE GREAT ESCAPE: In 1943, the Germans opened Stalag Luft North, a maximum security prisoner-of-war camp, designed to hold even the craftiest escape artists. In doing so, however, the Nazis unwittingly assembled the finest escape team in military history - brilliantly portrayed here by Steve McQueen, James Garner, Charles Bronson and James Coburn - who worked on what became the largest prison breakout ever attempted. THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN: In the blistering heat of the Mexican sierra, a village trembles in fear - waiting for the savage onslaught from Calvera (Eli Wallach) and his bandidos. Terrorized, robbed, humiliated, the villagers are desperate to hit back and set off for the American border to buy guns. But in their quest they come across seven awesome weapons of destruction: a group of hard-riding, mercenary Western gunmen who will ride with them to the village and take out the bandidos. Led by Chris Adams (Yul Brynner), the seven find themselves plunged into a fight for the life of the village. In this classic Western inspired by the Seven Samurai of Japan, Brynner - together with a cast of the caliber of Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson and Horst Buchholz - fire the first bullets in a fight to the death. THE SAND PEBBLES: THE SAND PEBBLES tell many stories. It's the story of China, a slumbering giant that rouses itself to the cries of its people - and of the Americans who are caught in its bloody awakening. It's the story of Frenchy (Richard Attenborough), a crewman on the U.S.S. San Pablo who kidnaps his Chinese bride from the auction block. Most of all, it's the story of Jake Holman (Steve McQueen), a sailor who had given up trying to make peace with anything: including himself. Nominated for eight Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actor for McQueen, THE SAND PEBBLES blends explosive action with stirring drama and romance. THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR: Thomas Crown (Steve McQueen) is a lone wolf in chic clothing. He's a Boston tycoon who masterminds a daring job, even though he doesn't need the money. What he needs is the thrill of the heist, the adrenaline rush of not getting caught. Catching crooks is where insurance investigator Vicky Anderson (Faye Dunaway) comes in. She always gets her man. But this time she may be too much in love to give him up. McQueen and Dunaway are lovers and adversaries in a stylish cat-and-mouse thriller written by Alan R. Trustman and directed by Norman Jewison (“In the Heat of the Night”, “Moonstruck”). Jewison makes exciting use of split screen images as the action leaps from the boardroom to the boudoir, the polo field to a glider cockpit. The Oscar®-winning Best Song (1968) “The Windmills of Your Mind” sets the perfect tone for the swirl of romance and intrigue.
