[John Hodson]

It is tempting isn't it?

For those who may be interested in seeing some of these, Turner Classic Movies will be airing the Whistler movies on Monday, October 5, and the Falcon movies on Friday, November 20.

With Sony's new policy, the chances for a "Whistler" set are hopefully not that bad.

Amazon.co.uk started selling stand-alone releases of The Falcon and The Saint, recently , from Odeon Entertainment. So far, Odeon has released: The Falcon Takes Over, The Falcon's Brother,and The Saint's Double Trouble.

The quality of the Falcon set was good. Not as good as if they had used 35mm. master negatives, but still good if a bit grainy. It definitely is NOT a bootleg. I don't know if it is still available. It only had 9 of the 13 Sanders/Conway films, the first 9 in the series. I see a third one of the Falcon films is also available from amazon.co.uk in addition to the two mentioned above; "The Falcon In San Francisco" and there is a 4th one listed as becoming available in Sept. of 2011, "The Falcon Out West". How odd that they wouldn't release them in order or as a box set of all 13 films. The titles just seem to be coming out in random order.
