This review is from: TCM Greatest Classic Legends: Burt Lancaster (Local Hero / The Flame and the Arrow / Executive Action / Seven Days in May) (DVD)
Nothing to add content-wise to calvinnme's review ('Executive Action' and 'Flame and the Arrow' earn three stars each, 'Seven Days in May' and 'Local Hero' four-plus), but Amazon's specs are wrong. The set actually includes four single-sided picture discs and not two flippers as indicated-- good news for those of us who disdain the latter format.

WB tries again with Burt Lancaster..., July 15 2011
By calvinnme - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: TCM Greatest Classic Legends: Burt Lancaster (Local Hero / The Flame and the Arrow / Executive Action / Seven Days in May) (DVD)
... the first time being the ill-fated Burt Lancaster Signature collection back in 2007 in which the films were just not that interesting. Lancaster was never really a studio player so his films are spread all over - his best work was primarily at United Artists though. Flame and the Arrow and Executive Action were in the old Signature collection - now out of print. Executive Action is interesting, Flame and the Arrow - not so much. Local Hero and Seven Days in May are excellent films that were on DVD but are now long out of print. Perhaps the original Burt Lancaster Signature Collection would have done much better if these two films had been included. It's just a shame that if you want Seven Days in May or Local Hero you may have to double dip Flame and the Arrow and Executive Action.As for "Twilight's Last Gleaming", originally promised by WB to be in the Burt Lancaster Signature Collection, it is now scheduled to be released by Olive Films instead. I guess this excellent film didn't even rate the Warner Archives, which is an odd turnabout for WB.

Conspiracy Theory, Oct 2 2011

This review is from: TCM Greatest Classic Legends: Burt Lancaster (Local Hero / The Flame and the Arrow / Executive Action / Seven Days in May) (DVD)
I bought this set because of Executive Action. I have never placed a lot of faith in conspiracy theorists discussions of the JFK assassination, but having seen this movie when it was first released instilled a small seed of doubt in the Warren Commission report. The rationale of the conspirators, the training methods employed, and the superb acting make this a must see film. The other three films, especially Seven Days In May with Kirk Douglas and Ava Gardner, are the polish that gives this diamond of a set it's 5 star rating (it would have been 6 star if that was an option).
Listmania!
