The best cat burglar that ever lived, Eddie “The Hawk” Hawkins, returns with hilarious antics and an all-star cast when Sony Pictures Home Entertainment releases Hudson Hawk: Special Edition on DVD November 20th for the suggested retail price of $19.94.
Directed by Michael Lehman (40 Days and 40 Nights, The Truth about Cats and Dogs) and written by and starring Bruce Willis (Sin City, Die Hard, Pulp Fiction) as well as Danny Aiello (Moonstruck, Do the Right Thing), Hudson Hawk features numerous duets sung by Willis and Aiello, including Bing Crosby's “Swinging on a Star” and Paul Anka's “Side by Side” timed to the action in this hilarious cult classic.
Synopsis:
After 10 years in prison, Eddie “The Hawk” Hawkins (Willis), the world's most famous cat burglar, is ready to go straight. But it's not going to be easy for The Hawk. The Mafia and the CIA have conspired to blackmail Eddie and his partner (Aiello) into stealing three Da Vinci masterpieces from the most heavily-guarded museums in the world. Sounds simple, right? WRONG!
While trying to steal the goods, Hawk falls in love with a beautiful but schizophrenic nun (MacDowell) and is relentlessly pursued by the greedy and powerful Minerva (Sandra Bernhard) and Darwin Mayflower (Richard E. Grant), who want the works of art as part of their twisted plot to ruin the world's economy. It is wall-to-wall action as the wise-cracking Hawk saves the world, wins the girl, and gets the last laugh.
DVD bonus features include:
Two All-New Featurettes with Bruce Willis and Sandra Bernhard
