{"product_id":"0715515055215","title":"George Bernard Shaw on Film [Criterion Collection] [3 Discs]","description":"\"This 30th edition of the Criterion Collection's monthly Eclipse series - a no-frills, pared-down issue of themed volumes featuring world cinema classics - features three key works adapted from the writings of George Bernard Shaw. The 1941 Major Barbara (co-directed by David Lean, Harold French and Gabriel Pascal) stars Wendy Hiller of Pygmalion and Rex Harrison of My Fair Lady, in a movie version of the Shaw play excoriating the hypocrisy of some Christian charity organizations; the megabudgeted 1946 Caesar and Cleopatra stars Vivien Leigh and Claude Rains, in its period tale of the exotic romance between the two famous rulers; and the 1952 Androcles and the Lion features Shaw in parable mode, with a wryly comic fable about the triumph of benevolence, as a slightly befuddled Christian slave (Alan Young) gets thrown into a pit with a lion, and survives the experience.\"","brand":"David Stoppa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47085230850288,"sku":"0715515055215","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/0715515055215_p0.jpg?v=1763838732","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/0715515055215","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
