Now on Blu-ray and DVD: Atlas Shrugged Part III: Who is John Galt?

By , Contributor
Though it struggled to find favor with critics (as well as moviegoers at cinemas), the epic big-screen adaptation of the popular Ayn Rand novel Atlas Shrugged is now complete. Released on Blu-ray and DVD by 20th Century Fox earlier in January, Atlast Shrugged Part III: Who is John Galt? marks the end of a journey begun with Part I in 2011. The third installment of the series (directed by J. James Manera, who co-scripted with Harmon Kaslow and John Agialoro), stars Laura Regan (Saving Jessica Lynch, Hollow Man 2) as Dagny Taggart and Kristoffer Polaha (Devil’s Knot) as John Galt.

As the government pursues policies imposing even greater brutality against those remaining, Dagny Taggart, Vice President of Taggart Transcontinental, must make a choice between saving the nation’s collapsing infrastructure or the man she has come to love - the man who would stop the motor of the World.”

Special features found on the Blu-ray include: “On the Set of Atlas Shrugged: Part III with Eric Allan Kramer, “Behind the Scenes of Atlas Shrugged: Part III with Dominic Daniel,” “ASP3: Explore the State Science Institute,” “Atlas Shrugged: Part III: Behind the Scenes: SFX,” “Atlas Shrugged: Part III Associate Producer Joan Carter on Dagny Taggart,” “Introducing John Galt: Behind the Scenes with Actor Kris Polaha.”
