This review is from: Classic Quad Set 14 (DVD)
This set features four romantic comedies from four different decades, and includes some of the most memorable pairs in Hollywood history. Each film is pressed on a separate disc and includes many special features. Great set for anyone looking to build a classic film library.

Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy star in this sophisticated workplace comedy. Joan Blondell and Dina Merrill co-star. Special features include a commentary track, a "Movietone News" newsclip about the fashions inspired by the film, the original trailer, a still gallery and trailers for several more classic Fox films.
Hollywood Cavalcade (1939/Color with B&W segments/97 minutes/Fullscreen)

How To Steal A Million (1966/Color/123 minutes/Widescreen)
