Two Mules for Sister Sara (1971)

Another Eastwood classic. Oddly this one hasn't got nailed by many collections but came out with just a plain photo cover despite being a standalone issue.

Foreign Correspondent (1940)

Hitchcock is one of the more frustrating directors to collect if you're OCD about DVD sleeves as all the various distributors are always putting out incomplete themed sets; the smashing Foreign Correspondent suffered more than most through being put out in one of Universal's more modish sets, a dire thing basically consisting of a big block of green and another of black. No. Went instead for the terrific art deco style poster on the front, though I'm not sure if using a similar but different image on the back was all that smart.

The American (2010)

Anton Corbijn's underrated modern classic was blessed with a great poster but when it came out on DVD the sleeve was lumbered with a boring photomontage. Soon remedied.
