Vitaphone Shorts, Warner Brothers Shorts, MGM Shorts, RKO Radio Shorts.PODER said:
Unfortunantly Warner does not own the RKO shorts. They were sold off to a company named Guild Films in the 50's and were then licensed to local TV stations. Guild has been absorbed over the years and the films that are not in public domain reside in some family trust. That does not know what they own or care.Doug Bull said:
Thanks Allen,ahollis said:
They have some releases on DVD from VCI and Alpha/Gotham (as recently as November 2013), which means they are either public domain or assumed to be.http://www.filmaf.com/search.html?has=leon+errol&rgn=us&init_form=str0_has_leon+errol*rgn_usDoug Bull said:
Thanks Brandon.Brandon Conway said:
I have heard that, and you are probably correct. The shorts changed many hands over the years since RKO sold them. But MGM having control is not a comforting thought.Mark Edward Heuck said:

I’LL SEE YOU IN MY DREAMS (1951) Doris Day and Danny Thomas play Gus and Grace LeBoy Kahn in this affectionate, human and humane musical biopic about the man behind the pop songs that defined a generation. “It Had to Be You,” “Makin’ Whoopee” and “Love Me or Leave Me” are among the 23 song Kahn cavalcade that depicts Kahn’s meteoric rise to the top of the charts and his crashing fall, along with Wall Street, in 1929. Directed with the pitch-perfect precision from the great Michael Curtiz. Also includes a vintage short, The Screen Director and the Looney Tunes classic, Lovelorn Leghorn. THE YEAR OF LIVING DANGEROUSLY (1982) Peter Weir’s adventure romance, set against the Indonesian revolution of 1965, made a superstar out of Mel Gibson and brought the world’s attention to the astonishing talent of Linda Hunt. Gibson plays Guy Hamilton, a rather sallow and shallow foreign correspondent covering the chaos while Hunt plays his translator and guide, Billy Kwan. Kwan acts as a Virgil to Hamilton’s Dante, leading him from the hell of journalistic indifference to compassion and his Beatrice, diplomatic attache Jill Bryant (Sigourney Weaver). THE WORLD ACCORDING TO GARP (1982) Robin Williams proved his brilliance extended beyond improvisation with his leading dramatic role in this adaptation of the beloved John Irving classic, “The World According to Garp.” Williams plays T.S. Garp, novelist son of strident feminist Jenny Fields (Glenn Close), who must wrestle his way through a life full of gender politics, parenthood, adultery, tragedy and recovery as he searches for his place. John Lithgow’s performance as Roberta Muldoon, a transgender NFL Pro, cemented his place as one of the character greats.
