A franchise collection based on the classic film BORN FREE including the 1966 original, 1972 sequel, 1974 TV series, and the 1996 TV movie. In 1960, a book written about raising an orphaned lion cub named Elsa and then releasing her back into the wild became a worldwide bestseller. Born Free was a game changer that essentially altered the way we perceive relationships between humans and animals. Because of the emotional bond George and Joy Adamson formed with Elsa, lions could no longer be dismissed simply as brutal killers to be shot while on safari. Elsa became an individual in the eyes of the world, and her story made her a symbol for all animals right to live free. Hollywood took the story to the next level with the 1966 release of the film based on the book. Starring real-life husband and wife Bill Travers and Virginia McKenna as George and Joy Adamson, it became a box office hit and award-winner and turned Travers & McKenna into wildlife activists in the process. This deluxe collection includes the following films and TV series: BORN FREE (1966) LIVING FREE (1972) BORN FREE: THE SERIES (1974) BORN FREE A NEW ADVENTURE (1996) STARRING: Born Free: Virginia McKenna (A Town Like Alice) Bill Travers (Ring of Bright Water) Geoffrey Keen (Moonraker) Living Free: Nigel Davenport (A Man for All Seasons) Susan Hampshire (TV's Monarch of the Glen) Geoffrey Keen (Born Free) Born Free - The Complete Series: Gary Collins (Airport) Diana Muldaur (TV's L.A. Law) Born Free - A New Adventure: Jonathan Brandis (TV's SeaQuest 2032) Ariana Richards (Jurassic Park) Chris Noth (TV's Sex and the City) Lea Moreno (TV's DAG) Linda Purl (Mighty Joe Young)

Great set
The description says "Number of discs 1" (for 3 movies and a TV series season), which would have meant terrible quality. Fortunately the reality is that there are 4 discs.

Complete TV Series included!!
Just great to have the complete TV Series from 1974 all 13 episode's are here Starring Gary Collins and Diane Muldaur. Remember watching this in the 70s on a Sunday night in the UK i loved the original Classic 1966 film Born Free with Virginia McKenna and husband Bill Travers. This is also in the collection with the sequel from 1972 Living Free with Nigel Davenport and Susan Hampshire in the roles of the 2 original stars. The final film included is a made for tv film from 1996 called Born Free A New Adventure so you have 3 feature films and the TV series across 4 Dvds. I already had the 2 major films in my collection but wanted the TV series never released in the UK on Dvd so made up to have it now each episode is 1 hour long all great stories and still included the beautiful Oscar winning song by the late great John Barry over the opening and closing titles! (produced by Screen Gems/Columbia Pictures Television) just a joy to see again. Mark Lees ex Cinema Projectionist UK. December 2019.

DVD does not work and no returns
It does not make it clear that this product is not for UK use. I cannot play it as it just says ‘non regional code’. For some reason there is no way of contacting seller and it says no refunds or returns. Do not trust this seller
