This May, Entertainment One invites you to hit the dusty trail with four classic Westerns in

Wild West Legends

A two-disc collection, re-packaged and re-priced for ultimate collecability, the frontier-set, adventure-packed set includes the following films for one low price: One Eyed Jacks, starring Marlon Brando and Karl Malden; Santa Fe Trail, starring Errol Flynn and Ronald Reagan; The Outlaw, starring Jane Russell and Walter Huston and Daniel Boone, Trail Blazer, starring Lon Chaney Jr. and Bruce Bennett.

One-Eyed Jacks, a 1961 Western, is the only film directed by actor Marlon Brando, who also played its lead character, Rio. It is also notable for what it almost was: a film directed by Stanley Kubrick from a screenplay by Sam Peckinpah. Other members of the cast include Karl Malden, Slim Pickens, Katy Jurado and Ben Johnson.

Santa Fe Trail is a 1940 western film directed by Michael Curtiz and starring Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland. The film was one of the top-grossing films of the year, being the seventh Flynn-de Havilland collaboration. The film also has nothing to do with its namesake, the famed Santa Fe Trail, except that the trail started in Missouri. Instead, it follows the life of J.E.B. Stuart, a cavalry commander (and future Confederate Army general).

The Outlaw is a 1943 American Western film, directed by Howard Hughes and starring Jane Russell. The supporting cast includes Jack Buetel, Thomas Mitchell, and Walter Huston. Hughes also produced the film, while Howard Hawks served as an uncredited co-director. The film is notable as Russell's breakthrough role, largely due to the costuming, turning the young actress into a sex symbol and a Hollywood icon.

Daniel Boone, Trail Blazer is a 1956 American film directed by Albert C. Gannaway and Ismael Rodríguez.
