Eureka sings a tune for LAURA (Review)

The celebrated noir classic LAURA comes to Blu-ray from Eureka as part of their Masters of Cinema line.  When a woman is brutally murdered, her face mutilated beyond recognition, a detective probes her past and her circle of friends and finds himself falling in love with a woman forever unattainable until she appears to him in the flesh.  Gene Tierney, Dana Andrews, Clifton Webb, Vincent Price, and Judith Anderson star in Otto Preminger's classic.
