Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 or region free DVD player in order to play.Scott of the AntarcticRobert Falcon Scott (John Mills) is a determined explorer whose ambition is to be the first man to reach the South Pole. He starts off well, with three modes of transportation -- dogs, ponies and snow tractors -- but the extremely cold weather, as well as the conspiracy against him by a rival team of Norwegian explorers, proves to be too much for the man and his expedition. The film is based on the true story and inspired by footage shot on the actual journey.The LadykillersMrs. Wilberforce (Katie Johnson) likes to report suspicious behavior to the police. Unaware of her reputation, the dapper thief Professor Marcus (Alec Guinness) rents rooms in the elderly widow's home for himself and his band of cohorts. Posing as a string quintet, the thieves pull off a bank robbery, but slip up in front of the old woman as they try to escape. Agreed that they need to murder her, the bumbling crooks wind up double-crossing each other and slowly killing themselves off.The MagnetYoung Johnny Brent (William Fox) tricks another boy at his school into giving him a powerful magnet. When the magnet gets Johnny into trouble, he decides to give it away. He meets a medical inventor (Meredith Edwards), who is holding auctions for the hospital, and decides to give the man the magnet anonymously. As Johnny continues to feel guilty for taking the boy's magnet, he runs away to Liverpool, where the magnet comes back to him in an unexpected way.The Man in the White SuitChemist Sidney Stratton (Alec Guinness) is at a crossroads in his career. He's been trying to invent a long-lasting clothing fiber, but his unreasonable demands for high-end equipment have gotten him fired from job after job. Finally, Sidney creates a white suit that is impervious to the elements -- it cannot stain or wrinkle. At first he is celebrated as a hero but, soon enough, the clothing manufacturers realize that the perfect suit is actually very bad for business.
