HYSTERIA's rights would be with Warners, as inheritors of the pre-'86 MGM library. Columbia never had any rights to HYSTERIA AFAIK.

In a Press Release posted at the site linked-to below, it has been revealed Jeanine Basinger has recorded a 'companion' (I think we usually use the term 'commentary') track for 'The Tall T'.

Hi guys,

Does anyone have Mike Schlesinger's email address? I would like to ask him about a DVD title. Does he answer all his e-mail?



Sincerely/Krister

His email address, and he is the one that posted it, is in the linked article in the first post of this thread.

From personal experience, he does answer his email.
