    Warner Archive Blu-ray Wish List: The 1940's

    I'd enjoy seeing more war films as well. If the original three-strip Technicolor negative survives I'd also like to see the surreal musical from 1945 called Yolanda and the Thief.

    Warner Archive Blu-ray Wish List: The 1940's

    I've seen the 1948 version of The Three Musketeers. Would like to see it on blu-ray if the original elements still exist.

    Warner Archive Blu-ray Wish List: The 1940's

    It sounds like a dream combo—Cary Grant, Michael Curtiz, and the music of Cole Porter—but from my viewing long ago I recall that this film is good in parts but weak in others. But it was a big hit in 1946, and the score by Max Steiner and Ray Heindorf was nominated for an Oscar. If the original...

    Warner Archive Blu-ray Wish List: The 1940's

    @Beckford I haven't seen any of your recommended films. Thanks for your insightful reviews of Apache Trail, Captains of the Clouds, Desperate Journey, and Spy Ship. Hope to see these on blu-ray someday. Although it's movie that makes some roll their eyes, I fell as a teenager for 1942's Random...

    Warner Archive Blu-ray Wish List: The 1940's

    I've never seen the 1941 Technicolor hit Blossoms in the Dust, but I like Greer Garson and Mervin LeRoy. Anyone have an opinion on this one?

    Warner Archive Blu-ray Wish List: The 1940's

    I'm still back at 1941. Although Spencer Tracy apparently wasn't happy with the movie, he's truly creepy in his dual role. This rather epic and surreal production also stars Ingrid Bergman and Lana Turner.

    Warner Archive Blu-ray Wish List: The 1940's

    The 1940s is one of my favorite decades for movies, and so I think this is a good idea. I've only seen one of the movies you recommended—My Favorite Wife—and it's been so many years that my memory of it is hazy. Here are some lists...
