    It's a wonderful read. (As I should know, having been through it three times already. :cool: )

    A few words about...™ - All That Money Can Buy -- in Blu-ray

    Unhappy with his parent's choice of bedtime story, the child asked, "What did you bring the book that I didn't want to be read to out of up for?"

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ My Fair Lady-- in 4k UHD Blu-ray

    How wonderful to know that about the clips. And if I recall correctly, I had the privilege of meeting Ken Ross at the store where the Blu-ray of the restored MFL was introduced. (I believe he was also responsible for the Twin Peaks set not long before? And no doubt much more than I'm aware of.)

    I don’t see Ben-Hur on the website yet, or maybe I’m just missing it (though hopefully not with my New! Improved! cataract-free eyes). Can you give us the date of that, RAH?

    Stunning. Incredible. As for value, wouldn't it be more on the order of: priceless?

    Chita Rivera R.I.P.

    I saw her in the national tour of CHICAGO (in L.A.), and on her last night (before the cast change) of KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN on Broadway. Thirty years later, that latter still stands as one of the most stunning evenings experienced in a theater by the likes of me.

    Ten minutes?! When I come across a long-loader, it's still usually done in a minute or not much longer.

    A Few Words About While we wait for A few words about...™ Lawrence of Arabia -- in 4k/UHD Blu-ray

    Oh man, what a story. Overwhelming. I began skimming it, then realized there was more than first meets the eye. If you read it, read it all, and there are pages and pages of comments to mull over afterward.

    The Definitive A CHRISTMAS CAROL (1951): Starring Alastair Sim

    I believe this is new, apologies if it isn't. Joe Dante's take: https://trailersfromhell.com/a-christmas-carol/?fbclid=IwAR2tM2wm21uTFJMVLKpuP9tB0DRQ-pxRdcB8YQsTAW1zmkR1Cfr57IzwFcQ

    Press Release Criterion Press Release: All That Money Can Buy (1941) (Blu-ray)

    I like the woodcut style cover art (though I still like the color art on the DVD), even though it isn't that of the master, Fritz Eichenberg. (I was just reminded a while ago that I have an edition of the original story illustrated by him.)
