This one didn’t get too much coverage in its first run but the actors are good and the premise sounds interesting enough… check out The Contract on DVD when it hits stores on July 24th.
From director Bruce Beresford (Driving Miss Daisy, Paradise Road, Double Jeopardy) and on behalf of First Look Home Entertainment, I am pleased to present THE CONTRACT, set to be released on DVD July 24th, 2007, starring John Cusack (Gross Point Blank, Being John Malkovich, America’s Sweethearts) and Morgan Freeman (Million Dollar Baby, The Shawshank Redemption, Evan Almighty).
Synopsis:
While on a hiking trip to reconnect with his son after the death of his wife, Ray Keene (John Cusack) stumbles into a nightmare scenario of paid assassins and ex-military guns-for-hire. Frank Cardin (Morgan Freeman) is attempting to fulfill a contract to assassinate a high profile businessman when things go awry and he ends up in the custody of the U.S. Marshalls. After an ill-fated attempt by his compatriots to free him Frank finds himself in the custody of ex-lawman Ray and his son (Jamie Anderson). As the trio tries to make their way back to civilization they are relentlessly pursued by Frank’s friends who are intent on freeing their leader in order to collect on the contract. But one pursuer may be more foe than friend.

More than any other sport, baseball is a game of numbers. Statistics and records help measure the greats of the game against their peers - against generations - and this ever-evolving record book is what helps give baseball renewed life. But not every mark in the game is destined to change, for there are but a few that are indeed unbreakable. Legendary pitcher, 7 time Cy Young Award winner and record holder Roger Clemens hosts Baseball’s Most Unbreakable Feats, on DVD from Shout! Factory and Major League Baseball Productions. This detailed look at ten seemingly untouchable baseball achievements covers all the bases, including Cy Young’s 511 career wins, Joe DiMaggio’s 56-game hitting streak, Cal Ripken, Jr.’s stretch of 2,632 consecutive games played, Ted Williams’ 406 single-season batting average, Nolan Ryan’s 5,714 career strikeouts, Ricky Henderson’s 1406 career and 130 single season stolen bases, Pete Rose’s 4256 career hits, Eric Gagne’s 84 consecutive saves, Bob Gibson’s 1.12 season earned run average, New York Yankee’s five consecutive World Series Championship wins, and many DVD bonus materials include: “191 RBI Season,” “Two Grand Slams In A Single Inning,” “59 Consecutive Shutout Innings,” and “Back To Back No-Hitters.” The Baseball’s Most Unbreakable Feats DVD will be available to own July 3, 2007 for the suggested list price of $19.99.
