Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment released some very special box-sets to buy on DVD from 25th October 2004! Recall the glittering career of Marilyn Monroe with two sparkling DVD gift sets featuring four films never released before on DVD! Climb aboard ‘The Good Ship Lollipop’ with Shirley Temple as an enchanting collection of her most famous films are released for the first time! And finally ‘Whistle a Happy Tune’ with the six much-loved classics in the Rodgers & Hammerstein collection!

Marilyn Monroe Collections:
The world remembers a woman who sparkled as Hollywood’s most famous, most glamorous and most tragic superstar – Marilyn Monroe. In death Marilyn became a legend, an icon whose celebrity transcended her untimely end and who has become a symbol defining womanhood, sexuality and beauty for every new generation. Marilyn Monroe: The Classic Collection comprises 2 seven-disc box-sets (rrp £39.99 each), which are both brilliantly cut ensembles of her greatest films. Volume 1 includes Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Niagra, Bus Stop, River of No Return, Don't Bother To Knock, and for the first time on DVD, We're Not Married and Love Nest. Volume 2 includes How To Marry A Millionaire, There's No Business Like Show Business, Seven Year Itch, Monkey Business, Let's Make Love, and for the first time on DVD Let's Make It Legal and As Young As You Feel. Marilyn Monroe: The Classic Collection includes all of the key performances that made Marilyn an immortal phenomenon and embedded her in international pop culture as the ultimate personification of Hollywood glamour.

Shirley Temple Collection:
Easily the most popular and famous child star of all time, Shirley Temple got her break in the movies at the age of three, and as a child starred in more than 40 major motion pictures and 50 major television productions! This 5 disc Shirley Temple box-set (rrp £39.99) celebrates the dazzling career of the bright, curly-haired little girl, who could do it all – act, dance and sing at the age of five! The collection features colourised versions of six of her legendary films released from 1935 to 1940 including Heidi, The Stowaway, Captain January, Poor Little Rich Girl and Our Little Girl, all for the first time on DVD! Born in 1928, Shirley Temple was the box-office champion for three straight years from 1936 to 1938, beating out classic grown-up stars as Clark Gable, Bing Crosby, Gary Cooper and Joan Crawford. In 1935, Shirley was given a special Academy Award® in grateful recognition of her outstanding contribution to screen entertainment. Pour yourself a Shirley Temple cocktail and reminisce with the films that won Shirley an adoring audience during the Great Depression of the 1930s with this stunning, nostalgic collection!

Rodgers & Hammerstein Collection:
The hills are alive with the sound of… Rodgers and Hammerstein! This collection of much-loved classics, exclusively repackaged and re-released, make these time-honoured films a must for everyone! The box-set includes these six films from the legendary filmmakers: Carousel: After being sent to prison, Billy Bigelow takes his own life but is allowed to return to earth for one day to install a sense of hope and dignity in the wife and child he left behind. State Fair: The Frake family leave behind the routine of their farm for three days of adventure at the annual ‘Iowa State Fair’. Oklahoma!: The high-spirited rivalry between the local farmers and cowboys provides the colourful background against which a handsome cowboy and a winsome farm girl play out their love story. South Pacific: Set in an island paradise during World War II, two parallel love stories are threatened by the dangers of prejudice and war. The King and I: East versus West makes for a dramatic, richly textured and ultimately uplifting tale about the relationship between the King of Siam and Anna, his children’s tutor. The Sound of Music: The final collaboration between Rodgers & Hammerstein was destined to become the world's most beloved musical starring Julie Andrews. This classic box-set retails at £39.99 and is an essential addition to everyone’s film collection!
