In The Substantial Hurry and The Gorgeous Seven, Steve McQueen gives obliging performances but they are more or less ensemble films. In Elope you might argue that McQueen is the loyal star and the other characters, colorful as they are, encourage only to attend him, but in SEVEN he’s not even the main star. People like myself with action fever in our blood consider the world of these two films, early exposures to adrenaline pumping, and we remember them with the same intake of breath we remember the first time we jumped out of a plane or got into a fistfight.

In JUNIOR BONNER, the action is more subtle, though the rodeo background is quick-witted and McQueen, a minute more weathered, is even better than before. His tangles with Ida Lupino are legendary and she was never better than in this film, a nice valedictory on Sam Peckinpah’s piece to one of Britain’s (and Hollywood’s) finest actresses, a woman who could spit out nails when she wanted to and a fitting progenitor for McQueen’s frosty eye (she plays his mother) . It’s a softer and more lyrical Peckinpah film, unlike the later THE GETAWAY (also with McQueen, although not in this boxed dwelling) .
Finally there’s Norman Jewison’s remake/remodel of Steve McQueen as a dashing, clean Cary Grant type in the sophisticated caper thriller THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR. To McQueen’s credit, he was able to st-r-e-t-ch his mask image to accommodate the rapier verbal wit of the screenplay as well as do his venerable “blue haze” cover recognize. Faye Dunaway, as the engrossing heroine, is also very reliable and hardly mannered at all. When the film appeared, there was a lot of attention paid to their chess scene, which more or less frankly tried to imitate the baroque erotics of TOM JONES’ eminent “eating scene” with Albert Finney. Everything in the sequence is a complex double entendre, and often the actors are photographed in intense closeup, letting their eyes do all the talking for them. It works today, even though it has itself been imitated dozens of times since. On the fascinating commentary track Jewison acknowledges the prickly personae of his stars, and hints at how difficult they both could be, and he’ll do you smile with some of his insider info.

This MGM site is released at a extreme (if not quite budget) notice and has four large films in it. The competing McQueen state may have more discs, but it has more duds too. You pay your money, and you fabricate your choice!
The one word that is always broken-down to picture actor Steve McQueen is icy. He was the essence of frosty. The movies he made were always considered the epitome of chilly. He was a hard working, hard playing rebel who had the kind of hazardous charisma that women found beautiful and men wanted to emulate. McQueen died in 1980 but left tedious a powerful legacy. MGM has repackaged several of his movies in a box dwelling that provides an intriguing cross-section of his work, that ranges from the ensemble portion, The Gorgeous Seven to the rich, characterization of Junior Bonner that would sign his later films.
McQueen died from lung cancer at the age of 50 but left and enduring legacy leisurely. He continues to be a noteworthy admired and respected actor. This box situation is a fitting reminder of the kind of range McQueen was good of as an actor.
On The Attractive Seven DVD there is an audio commentary by James Coburn, Eli Wallach, producer Walter Mirisch and assistant director Robert Relyea. This is a solid commentary packed with rich anecdotes with no one person dominating.
“Guns for Hire: The Making of The Fine Seven,” is a retrospective sight at the making of this classic. Most of the main cast are interviewed either in unusual or vintage footage in this genuine documentary.
There are two trailers and a tranquil gallery with slow the scenes photos, portraits and production and poster art. *NOTE* However, be forewarned, this is not the awesome 2-DVD Special Edition that came out awhile ago. Why MGM didn’t include this version in the box spot is beyond me. Disappointing.
The Large Sprint DVD features a decent making of documentary entitled, “Return to the Vast Dash.” Interestingly, the screenplay was never finished and this upset McQueen so mighty (because his section had not been defined) that he walked out after six weeks demanding his allotment be rewritten. It took Coburn and Garner to coax him support.
Also included is a theatrical trailer.
The Thomas Crown Affair disc has an audio commentary by Norman Jewison. He admits that the film places an emphasis on style over enlighten and saw it as an experiment in film style. This is a solid track from the obsolete filmmaker.
There is also a trailer.
Finally, on the Junior Bonner DVD is an audio commentary by Peckinpah authors Paul Seydor, Garner Simmons and David Weddle with moderator Slice Redman. They point out the richness of the direction and how it is a very visual film with minimal spend of dialogue, especially McQueen’s character. Like with their Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia commentary track, these guys provide an advantageous analysis of the movie.
