    Would aspect ratio experts say the 2.00:1 ratio is preferable?

    What do people think about this one? Some of the WWII films have intriguing premises but don't really deliver imo (e.g., Passage to Marseilles). I'm interested in this but have no familiarity with it.

    The early 70s and the late 30s were the best eras for film imo

    The "male garbo" for nils ashter is maybe a stretch, but I've never seen this in a good print and I'm looking forward to it. And like so many giants of old, John Carradine is always superlative.

    l Thanks for the political analysis. Maybe someone else will comment on whether the film is any good.

    I know nothing about it, but I predict Thelma Ritter steals every scene she's in.

    Wow. So I guess this is loosely based on the separation of Pakistan and India? I didn't know that there was a film dealing with that. And I love Alan Ladd. Great news

    Wow. Thanks! Some long desired titles here. Also, the collection format is a great way to go in terms of keeping less famous titles from being overlooked or orphaned.

    Don't think so. Paramount kept at least part of their silents

    I'll once again show my ignorance in hopes of learning something. What is the significance of a "16 bit" scan? What are the alternatives?

    Along with UFOs, Bigfoot, Noah's Ark, and killer bees/ants, the Lincoln assassination was one of the public fascinations of the 70s. Great to have this artifact available.

    There are many similarities between Man on the Flying Trapeze and The Bak Dick. My favorite is Man

    I think the poster art made it look too much like another 70s drive in flick. Looks very interesting though

    I hadn’t thought about it before, ut considering how successful Reginald Denny was as a silent actor, it may have been something of an inside joke to cast him as the chief villain in the Voice of Terror
