DVD details for for
Border Incident (1949)

Six disc box set of five features, all exclusive to this box set. The highlight of the set is Nicholas Ray's On Dangerous Ground (1952), starring Robert Ryan as a tightly-wound cop and Ida Lupino as a blind woman who makes him question his unforgiving certainty in street justice. Anthony Mann's Border Incident (1949), starring Ricardo Mantalban and George Murphy as undercover agents investigating illegal human traffic in slave labor, places his noir sensibility in the barren California/Mexico border. Robert Montgomery directs and stars as Philip Marlowe in Lady in the Lake (1947), a Raymond Chandler adaptation directed almost entirely in a first person style. Robert Mitchum and Jane Russell star in the offbeat His Kind of Woman (1951), co-starring Vincent Price and Tim Holt, and Mitchum and Ryan are cop and crook (respectively) in The Racket (1951), co-starring Lizabeth Scott. Also exclusive to this box set is the feature-length documentary Film Noir: Bringing Darkness to Light on a disc that also features 5 vintage "Crime Doesn't Pay" short subjects.
