Thunder in the East (Blu-ray)

Screen legends Alan Ladd (Lucky Jordan, Shane) and Deborah Kerr (From Here to Eternity, The King and I) give sterling performances in the romantic war drama, Thunder in the East. In the mountainous Indian province of Ghandahar, 1947, shortly after the country has gained its independence, American gunrunner Steve Gibbs (Ladd) finds himself caught in a raging rebel conflict when he is unable to sell his arms to a peace-minded government official (Charles Boyer, A Woman’s Vengeance). Amidst it all, Steve falls in love with the beautiful and blind Englishwoman, Joan Willoughby (Kerr). Action and romance crescendo in a gun-blazing climax as an army of rebels lays siege to Ghandahar, ensnaring the two lovers. Rousingly directed by Charles Vidor (Gilda, A Farewell to Arms) and co-starring Corinne Calvet (Peking Express) and Cecil Kellaway (Unconquered). 2022 HD Master by Paramount Pictures – From a Scan | NEW Audio Commentary by Author/Film Historian Lee Gambin and Costume Historian Elissa Rose | Optional English Subtitles
