National Velvet

As long as young hearts endure, so will National Velvet and movies like it. In her starmaking role, Elizabeth Taylor plays Velvet Brown, a wide-eyed adolescent who, assisted by her jockey pal (Mickey Rooney), trains Pie, a horse she won in a raffle, for the Grand National Steeplechase. Of course, no girl can ride in the National, can she? Yet Velvet, posing as a boy, assuredly does. Superbly directed by Clarence Brown, this exciting winner of two Academy Awards co-stars a young Angela Lansbury and veteran Donald Crisp. Plus, the film has an off-screen postscript as winning as the on-screen finale: the studio gave Pie to Taylor after filming wrapped.

Next - Navigator - Brilliantly exemplifying Buster Keaton's ability to mine rich humor from the inanimate, The Navigator (1924, 65 min.) is a classic of the Golden Age of Comedy. Keaton stars as Rollo Treadway, an inexperienced lad of extraordinary wealth, but little common sense. He finds himself adrift on The Navigator, a 500-foot yacht, with no one but an equally naive girl (Kathryn McGuire). Together they face the misadventures that befall them on the high seas, from cannibals to unfamiliar domesticity. As a special feature, this DVD includes two additional shorts demonstrating Keaton's penchant for maritime mayhem. In The Boat (1921, 22 min.), Buster and family set sail aboard the homemade Damfino, while in The Love Nest (1923, 20 min.), a recently rediscovered lost film, he trades sailboat for U-boat to plumb new depths of hilarity. 

Previous - My Man Godfrey (Criterion) - The definitive screwball comedy, My Man Godfrey follows the madcap antics of a wealthy and eccentric family when they hire a down-and-out forgotten man as their butler. My Man Godfrey features brilliant performances by Carole Lombard and William Powell and was the first film to receive Academy Award nominations in all four acting categories.
