The Snows of Kilimanjaro/Penny Serenade (UK-import)
Double collection of classic dramas. In 'The Snows of Kilimanjaro' (1952), Gregory Peck stars as a renowned writer who is coming to the end of his life after being wounded whilst hunting in Africa. As death approaches, he ponders his life and tries to decide if there was any meaning to his past. In 'Penny Serenade' (1941), record store assistant Julie (Irene Dunne) falls for feckless reporter Roger (Cary Grant). Their budding romance is interrupted when he is offered a job in Tokyo, but he marries Julie before he leaves, promising to send for her once his finances are secure. When she eventually arrives, however, it is left to her to clear his debts. Happier times seem to be ahead when Julie becomes pregnant and they decide to return to America, but tragedy lurks just around the corner.
