CULTURES COLLIDE AND FAMILY TENSIONS RISE IN THE STAR-STUDDED ENSEMBLE FILM "JAYNE MANSFIELD’S CAR" FROM DIRECTOR BILLY BOB THORNTON

Available now On Demand and iTunes
 
BEVERLY HILLS, CA – Anchor Bay Films announced today the Blu-ray™ and DVD release of JAYNE MANSFIELD’S CAR from Oscar® winning writer/director Billy Bob Thornton. The acclaimed comedy/drama stars Thornton and Oscar® winner Robert Duvall, along with John Hurt, Kevin Bacon and many more in this powerful story which sheds a light on family life. 

The Blu-ray™ and DVD heads to retail on December 10, 2013 with an SRP of $29.99 and $26.98 respectively.  The Blu-ray™ and DVD include Jayne Mansfield’s Car: Behind the Scenes featurette.

In what critics are calling his best work as writer/director since Sling Blade, Academy Award®-winner Billy Bob Thornton stars along with Oscar winner Robert Duvall, two time Oscar®-nominee John Hurt and Golden Globe®-winner Kevin Bacon, in this story of fathers and sons, wars and peace, and the turbulent time that changed America forever. It’s 1969 in a small Alabama town, and the death of a quirky clan’s long estranged wife and mother bring together two very different families for the funeral.

But do the scars of the past hide differences that will tear them apart or expose truths that could lead to the most unexpected collisions of all? Robert Patrick (Walk The Line), Ray Stevenson (“Dexter”), Katherine LaNasa (“Deception”) and Frances O’Connor (The Hunter) co-star in the acclaimed
comedy/drama where “the performances are first-rate” (NY Daily News).
