#MovietimeInManhattan #PeachyAhoy @WBD Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment Announces The Boys in the Boat #HighlyRecommended by #PeachyDeegan @ManhattanPeachy

THE BOYS IN THE BOAT
ARRIVES ON BLU-RAY ON JUNE 25

Director George Clooney’s latest film, the inspirational true story, The Boys in the Boat, from Amazon MGM Studios, will be available for purchase on Blu-ray on June 25.  It's the best new movie you haven't heard of and George Clooney's talents as a director are evident throughout this new modern classic.

The timing of the release is of course particularly brilliant, or should we say bien sur, because you know the Paris Olympics are coming!  We just showed you what Team USA is wearing, and to amp up your excitement for this year's games we'd encourage you especially to watch this!  Meghan Musnicki, previously featured in Laudable Looks with her GOLD MEDAL from London is of course our favorite Olympic rower.

You'll be traveling further back in time than the London Olympics: you'll go all the way back to 1936 Berlin with The Boys on the Boat which is truly a timeless story.  It's the triumph of the human spirit that is universally appealing and it was captured so beautifully here.

The Boys in the Boat stars Joel Edgerton (“Loving”), Callum Turner (The “Fantastic Beasts” films), Peter Guinness (“Sleepy Hollow”), Jack Mulhern (TV’s “Mare of Easttown”), James Wolk (TV’s “Mad Men”), Hadley Robinson (“Anyone But You”), and Courtney Henggeler (TV’s “Cobra Kai”).

The Boys in the Boat will be available on June 25 on Blu-ray for $22.99 (ERP).



ABOUT THE FILM:

The Boys in the Boat is a sports drama based on the #1 New York Times bestselling non-fiction book written by Daniel James Brown. The film, directed by George Clooney, is about the 1936 University of Washington rowing team that competed for gold at the Summer Olympics in Berlin.
