Re: More Pre-Codes From Warners On March 4, 2008
Does anyone know if restoration work has been done for "A Free Soul"? The version I recorded off TCM last year was less than steller. It looked and sounded very dupey. I was hoping they did some significant work on it for this set. Anyone know?

I'm getting more excited about this set by the hour. I can't wait to watch the included documentary.
Too bad that WB sucks so bad!!

Re: More Pre-Codes From Warners On March 4, 2008
Me too! Though, I have to put in a vote for at least one Norma Shearer film to be included...either Strangers May Kiss (1931) or Riptide (1934)

Add Midnight Mary (33) to the set and that will make it perfect!

Re: More Pre-Codes From Warners On March 4, 2008
Since WHV claims there won't be a dedicated Shearer set, they should include as many of her films in these Pre-code sets as possible. On a personal note, I would like to see Madame Satan appear in the next set. I saw it a few months ago in Los Angeles and loved it. I agree with Russell that WHV really dropped the ball on the first set. The films themselves were fine, but there should've been more of them and the set should've had some features!? It felt really rushed and slapped together. One of the very few times WHV has disappointed me.

Re: More Pre-Codes From Warners On March 4, 2008
With all of the pre-codes that WB has access to, they could afford to do at least two sets a year. It seems like they released the Noir sets quickly and I think they could do the same with these if they wanted to. Maybe these take longer because the film material is so much older and needs work.
