Power that lasts

Tyrone Power was much more than an astonishingly handsome face.

From 1936 until his untimely death at age 44 in 1958, Power was one of Hollywood's biggest stars, equally at home in comedy ("Love Is News"), swashbucklers ("The Mark of Zorro"), thrillers ("Witness for the Prosecution"), drama ("The Razor's Edge") and period pieces ("Lloyd's of London").

Though he usually wore the white hat in films, he did delve into his darker side in 1947's classic film noir "Nightmare Alley."

His fans can feast on his films with the "Tyrone Power Matinee Idol Collection" DVD set, which was recently released by Fox Home Entertainment.
