    I don't mind June Allyson as an actress . I like her in the many MGM films she did . But in My Man Godfrey she just seems to be trying too hard to be the mad cap heiress . At times i just wanted her to shut up .

    David Niven was fine as Godfrey and Martha Hyer was as beautiful as ever . But June Allyson was a bit grating . Maybe she was trying too hard to fill Lombards shoes .

    OK ,when I bought the Ladd set it included "And Now Tomorrow " . They then took away that title and left it at 3 movies for the same price as the original 4. Being a Ladd fan and seeing that I got the set at a good price I went ahead and got the set. I didn't see any official reason why "And...

I eventually got a good set . Then about a year ago i went to watch Lives of a Bengal lancer and it now freezes up . It...

    The sad part is that there are sooooo many Universal and Paramount (pre 50s) movies that have never seen DVD . And it takes 7/8 months in between releases . Then what do you get 2/3 new to dvd titles and many releases of previously released dvds . Painful .

    After all this time 2 new to dvd titles is discouraging . With all the unreleased Universal and Paramount titles why would they only release 2 new titles ? Well 2 is better than none . As long as they get a little more regular with their releases . :unsure:

    Universal MOD program is very sporadic . They put out two waves of titles . Now nothing since sept/oct . They at least used to put out sets through TCM . But that also seems to have dried up .

    Great Imposter is a pretty good biopic with Tony Curtis . Also interested in the Cooper movie Desire with Dietrich . Not to mention Skylark with Milland and Colbert . I did just record that off TCM . Also plenty of Yvonne DeCarlo .

    I got China with Alan Ladd and Loretta Young . I thought it looked very good . I also enjoyed the movie . I wish Universal would put out these Alan Ladd films a little quicker . They just trickle out here and there .

    Tobuk is 2.35:1 Anamorphic Widescreen . Killdozer is fullscreen being a TV movie . I thought Tobuk looked pretty good . Killdozer looked ok too . A little dingy . But that could be the way it looked originally .
