3-DVD set including Algiers, Beat The Devil and Suddenly. --- Algiers: A suspenseful, romantic Hollywood thriller with Charles Boyer as Pepe, a master thief eluding arrest by the French authorities by operating in the safe haven of the crook-controlled Casbah. When Pepe meets the beautiful tourist Gabriel (Hedy Lamarr), her Parisienne background makes him long for the country he loves but can never see again. --- Beat The Devil: "Beat the Devil" tells of the exploits of a group of travelers on a steamboat, each hoping to carry off a huge swindle in the uranium fields of Northern Africa. A commercial success upon its release, this cult favorite has come to define the genre of spy movie spoofs in its whimsical parody of The Maltese Falcon and other classic 1940's detective movies. --- Suddenly: The town of Suddenly is a small, sleepy community where Sheriff Tod Shaw (Hayden) knows everybody by name. The town is thrown into a frenzy of activity when it is discovered that the PResident will be visiting and Suddenly comes under the scrutiny of the FBI. Sinatra plays FBI agent John Baron, who inspects a particularly strategic home with 2 other agents, only to take the family hostage and announce that they are the assassins that are being hunted down. The tension mounts as the clock ticks to the Presidents arrival and the family tries to outwit their captors and foil the assassination attempt.
