Gillian Anderson (“The X-Files”) and Jamie Dornan (“Fifth Shades of Grey”) reprise their cat-and-mouse roles in the second season (series, as they call it in the U.K.) of “The Fall,” available on DVD and Blu-ray Tuesday, March 1.

Anderson plays DSI Stella Gibson, who continues to hunt serial killer Paul Spector (Dornan) in the popular U.K. investigative crime drama. As Gibson tries to help Spector’s surviving victim remember the identity of her attacker, Spector deals with loose ends he left behind in Belfast. When he discovers that someone from his past has been helping the police with their inquiries, he changes his plans with terrifying consequences. Archie Panjabi (“The Good Wife”) also stars this season.

The six-episode season first aired in 2014 on BBC 2. Series 3 is scheduled to air in Britain sometime this year. The DVD and Blu-ray 2-disc sets each feature all six episodes plus bonus behind-the-scenes featurettes and deleted scenes. They are available for $39.99 via AcornOnline.com. Additionally, Series 1 makes its Blu-ray debut the same day. (The DVD version already is available.) “The Fall” won the 2014 Irish Film and TV Awards for Best TV drama.

Season Three of “The Americans” is available Tuesday, March 1 on DVD, with deleted scenes and exclusive extras. The series, which airs on FX, stars Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys as KGB spies posing as Americans living in suburban Washington, D.C., shortly after Ronald Reagan’s election to office. Their arranged marriage has produced two children 14-year-old Paige (Holly Taylor) and 12-year-old Henry (Keidrich Sellati), who know nothing about their parents’ true identities. The “couple’s” relationship grows more genuine and passionate by the day but is constantly tested by the escalation of the Cold War and the intimate, dangerous and darkly funny relationships they must maintain with a network of spies and informants under their control.

In the third season, the Jennings personal and professional worlds collide and exposure of their true identities looms as their friendship with FBI agent Stan Beeman (Noah Emmerich) grows. As the Jennings’ assignments grow riskier and more ethically questionable, they face mounting pressure to induct their friend into the KGB.

Extras on this four-disc set include deleted scenes and a featurette called “The Cold War for Paige.”

Set against a sprawling landscape of unforgettable sights and intoxicating music, “Youth” asks if our most important and transformative experiences can come at any time, even late in life.

The film features David Lang’s moving composition, “Simple Song #3,” nominated for a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for Best Original Song. Lang wrote the signature song before Sorrentino completed the script, which was a vital plot point for the character of Fred Ballinger (Caine).  A recipient of the Pulitzer prize in 2008 and Carnegie Hall’s Debs Composer’s Chair for 2013-2014, Lang is one of America’s most performed composers.
