“THE BEE GEES: HOW CAN YOU MEND A BROKEN HEART”

Almost a year after it debuted on HBO, longtime Steven Spielberg associate Frank Marshall’s excellent documentary about one of the most successful groups in music history arrives on home video. A wealth of clips details the rise of siblings Barry,

Maurice and Robin Gibb to international popularity in the 1960s with such singles as “To Love Somebody” and “Massachusetts,” then reinventing themselves with the hugeselling soundtrack to the movie “Saturday Night Fever” and continuing to ride their

renewed fame into the 1980s with more hits. Of course, the trio’s tunes form a big part of the content here, while interviews with such musical peers as Eric Clapton and Justin Timberlake also are included. So are comments from “To Sir, With Love” singeractress Lulu, who was Maurice Gibb’s wife for several years. (Not rated: AS, P)

“IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE”

Not only is this Frank Capra-directed

1946 classic one of the most beloved of all holiday-season attractions, it also is one of the most reissued titles in home-video history, with a new presentation making its way to the market every couple of years or so. This time, the 75th anniversary of the picture is marked with a Blu-ray release in Steelbook casing. James Stewart makes the perfect George Bailey, the hapless Bedford Falls citizen whose experience of seeing how life would be without him has been echoed by countless TV-series episodes. Donna Reed, Lionel Barrymore and – as wing-earning angel Clarence – Henry Travers lend great support. The package

includes both black-and-white and colorized versions of the film, plus 10 recipe cards from “It’s a Wonderful Life: The Official

Bailey Family Cookbook.” (Not rated: AS)
