Studios. The capsule collection which includes classic films and documentaries will be available on its inflight entertainment system, ice, from September 1. The newly-launched collection will feature movies from the earliest classics like Casablanca and The Wizard of Oz, through to more recent releases such as Dune and Elvis. Furthermore, the collection will include four Max Original documentary specials chronicling the history of the movie studio. Exploring the impact of Warner Bros. on art, commerce and culture, 100 Years of Warner Bros. tells the story of the entertainment studio by featuring insights and first-person stories from directors, actors, executives, journalists and historians. The four documentaries trace Warner Bros. founding in the early 1920s by four brothers from an immigrant family, through decades of creative risks to the mergers of the 2000s that transformed the company into an entertainment powerhouse. Narrated by Morgan Freeman, the documentaries feature interviews with the likes of Martin Scorsese, Oprah Winfrey, Clint Eastwood, Tim Burton, George Clooney, Ellen DeGeneres, Daniel Radcliffe, Keanu Reeves, Oliver Stone and Robert De Niro.
