Burke was one of Ziegfeld's legendary beauties. And then he married her.

Another question for @Robert Crawford . Any thoughts on another title on sale on iTunes: The Great Sioux Massacre?

The extraordinary Jane Greer would have turned 100 today. We're lucky to have her on film.

Untouched is coming my way. I've never seen it. Thanks for reminding me about Soledad. I've never seen it either. Both films, as you know, are directed by Roberto Gavaldon, one of Mexico's finest directors. Arturo de Cordova, Pedro Armendariz and Ricardo Montalban navigated between Hollywood's...

The Housemaid is a very subversive film. Remade in 2010. Stick to the excellent original.

Both my copies would not play on my Oppos. I had to buy the digital version.

Victims of Sin, a recent excellent Criterion release, is featured in the first program. Directed by Emilio Fernandez and gorgeously shot by Gabriel Figueroa. Not Production Code friendly, not with those rumba and mambo dances!

Gable, Montgomery, Barrymore and Muni.

I have seen it but have no recollection of it. I'm recording it.

I have seen it and it is definitely well worth your time. Germi and Cardinale...excellent combination.

Regarding Nunca abras esa puerta: The transfer is definitely better than the 3rd part of the trilogy due to having better elements to work with. The art direction is excellent. The cinematography is superb: dark, dark, dark, with a big helping of German expressionism. Shadows, sets and people...

I'll try to watch it tonight. Had I remembered that the other film was included as an extra on this disc, I might have waited. But then, since my wife missed it, I might just watch it again.

I skipped, though I recorded, the first film, since I'll wait for the Flicker Alley release to arrive. The second movie was tremendous, marred by the poor transfer (unavoidable if you hear Eddie's comments). I'm just glad something survived. It's inky dark, and the feeling of dread increases by...

I haven't seen either film. Will watch Eddie's comments on the first one and view it when I get my BD. The second one is a definite must watch. Was it last week that TCM showed the Mexican version of Five Came Back? Produced by RKO/Mexico it was titled Los que volvieron (Those Who Came Back)...

Haven't seen it either. I have ordered directly from Flicker Alley.

Robert, can you give me a recommendation on which version of Rosemary's Baby to watch? Criterion BD vs. Paramount 4K disc? Thanks.

Good film. Go, Suzuki!

I liked the way she looked, period. Fascinating woman and artist.

I loath Ward Bond for the damage he inflicted on Hollywood during the real witch hunt. However I separate those feelings from his acting talent. The balance, though, weighs in towards the negative. Terrible human being.

The Big Trail and Rio Bravo.

Well, I did meet the gentleman. As gracious and handsome as in this photo. Besides, he is one of my favorite silent stars who transitioned well into talkies. A member of the Ford company.

Tracy is easily recognizable. George O'Brien?

That's my guess as well.

I viewed the Kino disc when it was released. I'll record for Eddie's comments.

I'll just say that it's a great film. Saw it first in 35mm in NY a very long time ago. I also watched the Criterion edition. Becker is a director to follow. Signoret and Reggiani are no slouchs either.

I'd never seen it either. It played well zoomed in to 16:9 ratio.

A must get for Wyler admirers. I'm one.

I remember RAH extolling its virtues. I enjoyed it as well.

Robert, did I miss a thread dedicated to Harry Belafonte's passing?

The moment they started playing "Wishing" I realized I'd seen the film. Watched it again. Short and sweet. And yes, Eddie should have mentioned the Andersons' relationship. I was waiting for that tidbit. Hope you caught that April will be Warner Bros. month at TCM.
