Frantic

Harrison Ford and filmmaker Roman Polanski count thrillers among their best work. USA Today's Mike Clark wrote, "Frantic teams an imaginatively cast superstar and the greatest living suspense director in fine form." Ford plays an American doctor whose wife (Betty Buckley) suddenly vanishes in Paris. To find her, he navigates a puzzling web of language, locale, laissez-faire cops, triplicate-form bureaucrats, and a defiant, mysterious waif (Emmanuelle Seigner) who knows more than she tells. "It is the spirit of Hitchcock that reigns here." --Michael Wilmington, Los Angeles Times.

The Fugitive

Catch him if you can. The Fugitive is on the run! Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones race through the breathless manhunt movie based on the classic TV series. Ford is prison escapee Dr. Richard Kimble, a Chicago surgeon falsely convicted of killing his wife and determined to prove his innocence by leading his pursuers to the one-armed man who actually committed the crime. Jones (1993 Academy Award and Golden Globe winner as Best Supporting Actor) is Sam Gerard, an unrelenting bloodhound of a U.S. Marshal. They are hunted and hunter.

The Devil's Own

From the director of Presumed Innocent and The Pelican Brief comes this suspense drama of two complex, proud and passionate men. When New York cop Tom O'Meara (Harrison Ford) agrees to open his family home to Rory Devaney (Brad Pitt), he doesn't know that he is about to shelter a dangerous and wanted terrorist. Accepted into Tom's family, Rory discovers a tranquility that he has never experienced. But Rory's terrorist mission is calling - and when he finally has to answer, it is Tom who must hunt him down...and who becomes Rory's sole chance of getting out alive.

Clear And Present Danger

Harrison Ford returns as intrepid CIA agent Jack Ryan in this critically acclaimed box-office smash from the producers of Patriot Games. When his mentor Admiral James Greer (James Earl Jones) becomes gravely ill, Ryan is appointed acting CIA Deputy Director of Intelligence. His first assignment: investigate the murder of one of the President's friends, a prominent U.S. businessman with secret ties to Colombian drug cartels. Unbeknownst to Ryan, the CIA has already dispatched a deadly field operative (Willem Dafoe) to lead a paramilitary force against the Colombian drug lords.

Blade Runner

Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford) prowls the steel-and-microchip jungle of 21st-century Los Angeles. He's a Blade Runner stalking genetically made criminal replicants. His assignment: kill them. Their crime: wanting to be human. The story of Blade Runner is familiar to countless fans, but few have seen it like this. Because this is director Ridley Scott's own vision of his sci-fi classic. This new version omits Deckard's voiceover narration, develops in slightly greater detail the romance between Deckard and Rachael (Sean Young) and removes the "uplifting" finale.

American Graffiti

This Academy Award-nominated classic, voted one of the American Film Institute's top 100 Films Of All Time, features the coming-of-age of four teenagers on their last summer night before college. Rediscover drag racing, Inspiration Point and drive-ins all over again in this nostalgic look back at the early '60s. The incredible soundtrack brings you the most memorable rock 'n' roll hits of the era.Directed by George Lucas and produced by Francis Ford Coppola, this classic stars Harrison Ford, Richard Dreyfuss, Ron Howard, Suzanne Somers, Cindy Williams, Wolfman Jack and Mackenzie Phillips.

Air Force One

You know that old dramatic principle of suspension of disbelief? You'll have to rely on it for this box-office smash, but you won't be disappointed. Harrison Ford plays a U.S. president who single-handedly employs his rigid antiterrorism policy when a band of Russian thugs hatch a mid-flight takeover of Air Force One. Gary Oldman, who chews the scenery as the lead terrorist, will shoot a hostage at the slightest provocation. Glenn Close plays the sternly pragmatic vice president who negotiates with Oldman from her Washington seat of power.

Kung Fu: The Complete Second Season

The adventure continues for Kwai Chang Caine (David Carradine), a Shaolin priest trained in the wisdom and warfare of China's ancients and following his life's path in the American West of the latter 1800s. Caine still searches for his half-brother Danny. A dead-or-alive bounty still hangs over his head. Yet Caine remains calm and resourceful. "I live. I rest. I am at peace. It is good," he says. Good, too, is this 4-disc set of Season Two's 23 episodes whose many guest stars include Harrison Ford, Don Johnson, Slim Pickens, Gilbert Roland, Tina Louise, John Carradine and Benson Fong.
