Vincent Sherman recently passed, are there any other of his fine dvd commentaries?


Having enjoyed Sherman's amazingly sprightly contributions to the DVD releases of MR SKEFFINGTON and OLD ACQUAINTANCE I was glad to see that he worked on commentary tracks for the upcoming releases of RETURN OF DR X and ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT.

The venerable gent has now passed away at the venerabl age of 99, just a month shy of his century.

Does anyone know if he worked on any other commentaries or DVD materials that are due for release in the future?

Yes, his death was noted in this thread. As you noted, a couple of his directed films are coming out soon and they have his commentary on them. One is "The Return of Dr. X" and the other "All Through the Night". Hopefully, there might be others down the road.

Sherman also did a commentary for THE DAMNED DON'T CRY in Warner's first Joan Crawford box.

He is interviewed (on camera) as one of the bonus features on Roan's DVD of PATTERNS - even though he did not direct this film! If my memory serves, he talks quite candidly about how the blacklist/greylist worked in Hollywood during the McCarthy era.

I think his interview on Roan Group's Patterns is from their disc of Underground which he directed.

Corey, where do you read about that? I am truly looking forward for this 3 titles, but I never heard anything about this commentaries. Good to know there are commentaries for them. It's a signal that eventually they will be released.

Corey, this is awesome news.
I love Ann Sheridan and I think she made a wonderful job in those two particular films.

I hope he did a commentary for The Young Philadelphians. He had some incredible actors on board and it would have been wonderful to hear some stories and thoughts.
