Celebrate the collaboration of one of America's great storytellers and some of Hollywood's brightest talent in this "engrossing and entertaining" (Hollywood Citizen-News) collection of five unforgettable O. Henry tales. Featuring "a glittering ensemble" (The Hollywood Reporter) of Hollywood's most beloved stars, this exciting collection delivers dazzling performances, hearty laughs and entertainment on a grand scale!

Charles Laughton and Marilyn Monroe light up the screen in The Cop and the Anthem, a hilarious tale about a hobo looking to spend the cold night in a warm jail, while Dale Robertson and Richard Widmark go head-to-head in the murder mystery of The Clarion Call. The Last Leaf stars Anne Baxter and Jean Peters in a touching story about hope in the face of despair, and Fred Allen and Oscar Levant discover the perils inherent in kidnapping a ten-year-old terror in The Ransom of Red Chief, which was directed by Howard Hawks! The heartwarming finale to the collection is delivered with grace by Jeanne Crain and Farley Granger in The Gift of the Magi, a story about selflessness and love on Christmas morning.
