Is there a single Kaye movie on blu-ray? I don't think so, but maybe I've missed something. There were a lot of good, imho, Kaye films made in the 40s and 50s. Which ones would you vote for? Which 3-5 would be considered the best of Danny Kaye? Are any of these owned by Warner?
Although I haven't seen it in many years, as a kid the Secret Life of Walter Mitty cracked me up. And aren't there rumors of a remake with Jim Carrey? Maybe released to take advantage of the publicity?
I also like Wonder Man...
