    Your new BD titles requests from Twilight Time

    Just wish they'd give titles like THE STORY OF RUTH, FRANCIS OF ASSISI, BOY ON A DOLPHIN or PRINCE OF PLAYERS a chance. Obviously Fox won't unless there's a remake in the wind.

    International SAMSON AND DELILAH, WAR AND PEACE and JOHN PAUL JONES from Spain

    Just received a BD order from Amazon Spain and am amazed at the quality of two out of three of them. The SAMSON AND DELILAH is a true revelation, super sharp and colorful and so much better than the standard DVD that Paramount put out about a year ago. I'm still rather angry about that because...
