Lena Horne in a Harold Arlen movie musical classic!

Legendary stage and screen star Lena Horne headlines the iconic Harold Arlen movie musical STORMY WEATHER, now available for the first time on Blu-ray in a new special edition.

The official description of the new STORMY WEATHER Blu-ray is as follows: "Stormy Weather (1943) is a groundbreaking musical featuring an astounding all-African-American cast, perhaps never matched for sheer brilliance. The film's slight show biz-based romance is really a pretext for some twenty musical numbers performed by the sterling likes of Lena Horne, Bill Robinson, Cab Calloway, Fats Waller, The Nicholas Brothers, and the Katherine Dunham dance troupe. The outstanding musical score is highlighted by Waller's performance of his own "Ain't Misbehavin'" and the classic title tune by Harold Arlen and Ted Koehler, sung in barn-burning fashion by the inimitable Miss Horne."

Additionally, bonus features include a commentary, isolated score track and more.
