I watched (and really enjoyed) the StudioCanal restored Blu-ray of LE JOUR SE LEVE tonight and, although I was once again blown away by the movie itself, I was distinctly underwhelmed by the restoration. It's great to have
the deleted scenes restored (including the scene featuring a naked...
GUNSLINGER 1961 Warner Brothers with Tony Young
HEC RAMSEY 1972 Universal with Richard Boone
KODIAK 1974 Warner Brothers with Clint Walker
McCLAIN'S LAW 1981 MGM Television with James Arness
I would really like some clarification about the sound on DRUMS ALONG THE MOHAWK. I have owned

My biggest TV series wish would be for the excellent, but short lived, Tony Young western series GUNSLINGER. I recall this as being rather more violent than its contemporaries and Young making an excellent, brooding anti-hero -in stark contrast with the other Warner cowboys of the period. The...

Hello Ben Brigade! Great pseudonym BTW. Thanks for the Artus Films link. I see that they
have the 1946 THE CHASE (Great cover!). Another movie that exists in public domain hell. I think I'm right in
saying that VCI released this but that the PQ was still nothing special (Although predictably...
Three of George Raft's finest - NOCTURNE, A DANGEROUS PROFESSION and JOHNNY ANGEL due out on R2 Spain.
Uncertain whether or not to preorder. Many Spanish vintage releases have been fairly abject. TENSION AT TABLE ROCK and THE LONE GUN were both recent aquisitions that were filed straight in the...
