Warner Home Video said it will release all three of James Dean\u2019s movies re-mastered for Blu-ray Disc in an \u201cUltimate Collector\u2019s Edition\u201d on Oct. 28.<\/p>\n

\u201cEast of Eden\u201d (pictured with the late Julie Harris), \u201cRebel Without a Cause\u201d and \u201cGiant\u201d will be on a limited and numbered 6-disc set along with three feature-length documentaries about the actor who died aged 24 in 1955, screen tests, wardrobe tests, commentaries and features on each film.<\/p>\n

The documentaries are \u201cJames Dean Forever\u201d, narrated by Martin Sheen; \u201cAmerican Masters James Dean Sense Memories\u201d and \u201cGeorge Stevens: A Filmmaker\u2019s Journey\u201d about the director of \u201cGiant\u201d.<\/p>\n

Warner said that all three films were 4k restorations from original camera negatives at Warner Bros. Motion Picture Imaging (MPI): \u201cDue to color fading, the original camera negatives could no longer yield an acceptable photochemical print.\u201d<\/p>\n

For\u00a0\u201cRebel Without a Cause\u201d, the stereo soundtrack was reconstructed from the magnetic soundtrack stripes of Cinemascope release prints. The film\u2019s restoration was done by Warner Bros. in collaboration with The Film Foundation with funding provided by Warner Bros., Gucci and The Film Foundation.<\/p>\n

Packaged in a double-wide gift set, the collection contains a 48-page photo book with behind-the-scene images and insight into each film. The\u00a0Ultimate Collector\u2019s Edition\u00a0will be available for \u00a334.99 RRP, WHV said.<\/p>\n
