Perry Mason: Complete First Season DVD

Stylish, early '30s-set take on Erle Stanley Gardner's canny criminal defense lawyer from HBO casts Matthew Rhys in the title role, and picks up when troubled WWI vet Mason was still a contract gumshoe for L.A. attorney E.B. Jonathan (John Lithgow). Assigned to a notorious child kidnapping case, Mason would be steeped in a web of local corruption-and compelled to join the bar himself. With Tatiana Maslany, Shea Whigham, Juliet Rylance as Della Street, and Chris Chalk as Paul Drake.8 episodes on 2 discs. 8 hrs. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English; Subtitles: English (SDH).
