The Man in the Iron Mask is a well made adventure film featuring solid performances, namely Gabriel Byrne and Jeremy Irons and fairly impressive for being screenwriter Randall Wallace’s directorial debut, following up with his Academy Award winning screenplay for Braveheart.

The Ballad of Little Jo is a western-drama starring Suzy Amis, Bo Hopkins and Ian McKellan and arrives on Blu-ray from Kino Lorber with a new HD master and includes a commentary, interview and the trailer.
