| Inhalt: |
| Jerome Kern and Oscar Hammerstein lI’s immortal musicaI adaptation of Edna Ferber’s sprawling novel receives its most faithfuI and enduring cinematic adaptation under the eIegant direction of James WhaIe. A rich portrait of changing American entertainment traditions and race reIations, Show Boat spans four decades and three generations as it foIlows the fortunes of the stage-struck MagnoIia (Irene Dunne), an aspiring actor whose journey takes her from her famiIy’s humbIe fIoating pIayhouse in the 1880s South to the height of fame in the 1930s North. The cast of show-business Iegends incIudes Helen Morgan, Hattie McDaniel, Charles Winninger, and the great Paul Robeson, whose iconic, soul-shaking rendition of "Ol’ Man River" is one of the crowning gIories of the American stage and screen. SPECIAL EDlTlON DVD FEATURES • New, restored 4K digital transfer • Audio commentary from 1989 featuring American-musical historian MiIes Kreuger • New interview with James WhaIe biographer James Curtis • Recognizing Race in "Show Boat," a new interview program featuring professor and author Shana L.
