I would like to have "BERSERK" on a double bill with "TROG". I am not sure if that is WARNERS or not. Also, the unknown film "DELLA" with Diane Baker....................
I had no idea Joan Crawford had did pre-codes. Dance, Fools, Dance and Our Modern Maidens were under the Forbidden Hollywood banner on VHS, so it'll only be a matter of time till we see these gems.
Don't bet on it - Columbia/Sony has all but quit issuing such old catalog titles on DVD. They may have new masters of them, but they are only seen on TCM and such channels. They showed a widescreen THE GODDESS earlier this year, but I wouldn't hold my breath for a DVD release. Too bad... I'd love it and many other such films in anamorphic widescreen on DVD. Amazing such titles as QUEEN BEE came out in such a format from 2000-2003 when Columbia/Sony seemed to be excavating their library to issue tons of classic titles onto DVD. I mean, one month a bunch of Judy Holliday films came out, like THE MARRYING KIND, THE SOLID GOLD CADILLAC and IT SHOULD HAPPEN TO YOU. Wanna bet the other films they own will never be on DVD, such as PHFFFT and FULL OF LIFE? Catch them on TCM.
Sony could put together a pretty swell Crawford box set of Autumn Leaves, Harriet Craig, The Story of Esther Costello, & Berserk! They could throw in the already released Queen Bee and Strait-Jacket at a decent price, too.
They could also include the 1942 film, They All Kissed the Bride with Melvyn Douglas. I would actually like if they included the 2 previous released films since I don't own them. Here's hoping on this and a Rita Hayworth collection.
TSH truly borders on camp. the first time i saw it , i was like okay typical MGM crawford vehicle, but when joan goes into firefighter mode and that whole sequence with the bandaged face at the end ..i went did i see what i thought i saw?
Bits and pieces from the latest MoviesUnlimited Q & A. Whether these predictions come true or not, we shall see sooner or later
Sony is currently considering putting out Harriet Craig (1950) on a double feature with the earlier version of the story, Craig’s Wife (1936), so you’ll be able to compare whether Crawford or Rosalind Russell rendered the more contemptible character.
