Damn Yankees Blu-Ray   Warner Bros

Step up to the plate for Damn Yankees, the rousing movie of the 1,019-performance Broadway grand slam that imports nearly all the original New York lineup, including Tony Award ®-winning stars Gwen Verdon as luscious vamp Lola and Ray Walston as her slyly Satanic boss Applegate. Hollywood’s Tab Hunter suits up as potential lost soul and Washington Senators slugger Joe Hardy, revealing a freewheeling fun side unseen in previous roles. The Pajama Game duo of Richard Adler and Jerry Ross serve up an out-of-the-park home-run score, including “Whatever Lola Wants” and “Heart.” Choreographer Bob Fosse provides all the right moves, and he joins Verdon on-screen in performing “Who’s Got the Pain?” No pain here, just pure pleasure.
