It’s that time of year for major holiday videos, with some welcome items.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes was last summer’s surprise hit.

Kung Fu Panda 2 was another popular item, with the voices of Dustin Hoffman and Angelina Jolie, among others.

Heavenly Creatures was the 1994 feature in which Kate Winslet kicked off her big-screen career.

Seven Chances is a Buster Keaton masterpiece, now in a high-definition transfer, in which the star is pursued by hundreds of would-be brides.

And, making its Blu-ray debut, the 1944 Vincent Minnelli musical masterpiece, Meet Me In St. Louis, starring Margaret O’Brien, Judy Garland, and Mary Astor.
