Abstract
Canada 1931: The unsociable trapper Johnson lives for himself in the ice-cold mountains near the Yukon river. During a visit in the town he witnesses a dog-fight. He interrupts the game and buys one of the dogs - almost dead already - for $200 against the owner's will. When the owner Hasel complains to Mountie Sergeant Millen, he refuses to take action. But then the loathing breeder and his friends accuse Johnson of murder. So Millen, although sympathetic, has to try to take him under arrest - but Johnson defends his freedom in every way possible.

Abstract
In 1910, Bill, a Chicago steel worker accidentally kills his supervisor. He flees to the Texas panhandle with his lover Abby and his little sister Linda, where they work harvesting wheat in the fields of a stoic farmer. When Bill learns that the farmer is ill and has less than a year to live, he encourages Abby to accept the man's attentions. The Farmer and Abby marry, and she and her "siblings" live in the big house, waiting for the Farmer to die, so Abby can inherit, and the three of them live happily ever after. But love seems to be a cure-all: the Farmer seems to be improving--and Abby is no longer seeing this as a marriage of convenience. From a landscape of panoramic vistas, vivid colors, and rich textures comes a timeless American idyll and a gritty evocation of turn-of-the-century labor.

Abstract
In this wild comedy adventure, rail passenger George Caldwell (Gene Wilder) finds that a romantic escapade with a sultry secretary (Jill Clayburgh) puts him in the middle of a Hitchcockian murder plot. Leaping on and off the train, in and out of roomettes, bars, and dining cars, George teams up with an amiable small-time crook (Richard Pryor) to defy the murder's henchmen, FBI agents and a host of other outrageous characters (from back of DVD)

Bears, Grizzly
Abstract
The largest and most powerful bears on earth live only in the northern reaches of the world. Brown bear, polar bear; related yet distinct, both are forces of nature that have left their mark on humankind. The very heart of wilderness beats within these bears, with ranges spanning countries and continents. Circumpolar Bears explores the lives of brown bears and polar bears found throughout the North – from grizzlies in Canada’s Arctic to brown bears in Finland and Russia, and polar bears from around the world. They have survived 200 million years of evolution, but the next hundred years may bring their greatest challenge yet.
Notes
The abstract has been taken directly from the film itself.
The front reads: "come face to face with the largest bears in the world - the Circumpolar Bears."
