Bring "The Asphalt Jungle" to DVD
Petition published by Joey Mangini on Jul 12, 2003
Target: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM)
Region: GLOBAL
Petition Background (Preamble):
The Asphalt Jungle is a classic movie, directed by John Houston and based on a W. R. Burnett novel. It is the story about Doc (Sam Jaffe) who is planning a jewel store robbery with Dix (Sterling Hayden), Gus (James Whitmore) and Louis (Anthony Caruso). The jewels will be sold to lawyer/fence Emmerich who, nearly broke and planning a double cross, puts up a front with the help of his "niece" Angela (Marilyn Monroe, in an early screen performance)! It got nominated for four Academy Awards (Best Supporting Actor, Best Cinematography, Best Director, Best Screenplay)! It is truly one of the finest in film noir! But this truly one of a kind film has not been released on DVD?!
Petition:
We the undersigned want MGM to release the timeless classic, The Asphalt Jungle on DVD!
