{"product_id":"possessed-1931","title":"POSSESSED (1931)","description":"\u003ch4 class=\"tagline\"\u003eHow long will it last?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt's Joan Crawford and Clark Gable, magnetically locked in a passionate affair- one rumored to be as real off-screen as on. In this pre-Code classic, Crawford plays an ambitious factory worker who dreams of satin gowns, diamonds and penthouse apartments. Gable is the man able to make her dream come true. An influential New York lawyer with political aspirations and an aversion to marriage, Gable gives her everything she desires, including a wedding ring. But there's a catch: the ring, and a fictitious married name, are merely designed to legitimize their affair. In reality, she's still a single woman open for disgrace. By 1931, Joan Crawford was already a veteran star, and she shows her mastery of the medium in every shot. The camera becomes a voyeur that studies her most vulnerable and private reactions, from the shy gutsiness of the factory girl to the poised elegance of the Park Avenue sophisticate. With its high style and snappy dialogue, \"Possessed\" gives Crawford a showcase for the character that made her a legend- the lone woman tough enough to live by her wits, but beautiful enough not to need them. Fun fact: \"Possessed\" has the distinction of being the title of TWO Joan Crawford features, with this 1931 M-G-M release being the first, while Warner Bros. used the title for a Crawford melodrama in 1947, both of which are now part of the Warner Archive Collection's Blu-ray offerings.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecial Features and Technical Specs:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eNEW 4K RESTORATION FROM THE ORIGINAL CAMERA NEGATIVE\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMGM Dogville comedy short \"LOVE-TAILS OF MORROCO\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClassic cartoon \"BOSKO THE DOUGHBOY\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional English SDH subtitles for the main feature\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WARNER ARCHIVE","offers":[{"title":"BLU-RAY","offer_id":48739965501659,"sku":null,"price":39.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0660\/6379\/4395\/files\/410368_front.jpg?v=1777846256","url":"https:\/\/baystvideo.com\/products\/possessed-1931","provider":"Bay Street Video","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
