Films of ROBERT MITCHUM's that are new to DVD or Blu-Ray include: Blu-Ray
Cape Fear: One of Mitchum's most enduring performances as the terrifying ex-con Max Cady is now available on Blu-Ray.
Pursued. This terrific noirish western, co-starring Theresa Russell, is also available on DVD.
DVD
My Forbidden Past: A New Orleans romance with Ava Gardner that has been unavailable in any format for many years.
One Shoe Makes It Murder: A little-seen 1982 TV movie co-starring Angie Dickinson.
Promises to Keep. This 1985 TV movie featured the only time that Mitchum co-starred with both his son Christopher and grandson Bentley. It's long been unavailable, but is finally on DVD.
Going Home: This long out-of-print thriller from 1971 co-stars Brenda Vacarro and Jan-Michael Vincent.
The Wrath of God . In an update of sorts on The Night of the Hunter, Mitchum plays a gun-toting "priest" in Latin America in this 1972 film.
Foreign Intrigue. Sadly, one of Mitchum's worst films, this muddled 1956 spy film is laughably awful but if you're a completist, it's now on DVD in a set that also includes the 1958 Michael Redgrave version of The Quiet American.

Thompson's Last Run. Another 1980s TV movie: This one is from 1986, co-starring Wilfred Brimley as a cop pursuing his old pal and criminal, Mitchum.
Best thing in Foreign Intrigue (I have a bootleg) is that Mithum got the Swedish love interest to pronounce "I love the fog" as "I love to f..k" in a romantic scene.
