twilight time

A friend out in Washington received a direct email announcing that the TT label was being resurrected and that a couple of titles had been announced. Hoax? I have asked him to forward this to me, and I will share it here. Perhaps I should have waited to get that before posting here, but this is...

Together agin, for the first time! Preminger, and Tierney. And they'd rejoin the future. But for this 1949 enterprise, things never jelled for me. It's a long way from Laura. Regardless, the talents brought together here are worth a look, as added to the mix are Jose Ferrer, Charles...

Raoul Walsh, for those who may be unaware, was one of the great American filmmakers, going back to 1912. For those who may care, yes, he worked on The Klansman. His 1955 Fox production, The Tall Men, is one of the quintessential Clark Gable films. Victor Young is responsible for the score...

Henry Levin's 1953 production of The President's Lady, based upon the historical novel by Irving Stone, has a special place in cinema history. When I saw it for the first time, probably back in the early '60s, on television, it was in black & white (which as far as I knew at the time, might...

Studio-bound from the word "go," Philip Dunne's Ten North Frederick, based upon the novel by John O'Hara, seems at times as though it will take off. I've always been a huge fan of Gary Cooper, but the tale of a successful man seeking love, and finding it with Suzy Parker, seems better in my...

Behold a Pale Horse has always seemed to be a bit of an oddity to me. Directed by Fred Zinnemann, one of the three that David Lean used to refer to lovingly as "the three foreigners," in a style so tepid to be almost without style, and with a minimal tale to tell. Partly having the appearance...

Beyond feature productions that had Technicolor sequences, in the nitrate era, Fox created over 90 films. Over a third of them were musicals, and they took extraordinary advantage of the three-strip technology, creating a very specific Fox Technicolor appearance. Afaik, with a single...

Baby the Rain Must Fall (I've always had a problem, with the lack of a coma) is one of those productions, for which a simple gaze at the credits, might just tell you everything you need to know. Produced by Alan J. Pakula Directed by Robert Mulligan (as a team, they had done an interesting...

I'm joining two of Twilight Time's new Blu-rays, the 1959 Warlock, with Richard Widmark, Henry Fonda, and Anthony Quinn, directed by Edward Dmytryk, with Bandolero! (Andrew McLaglen) (1968), with James Stewart and Dean Martin, for no other reason than the ability to compare and contrast the...

Fox, especially under Darryl Zanuck, seemed unafraid to tackle difficult subjects, as it did just a year previous, with Gentlemen's Agreement. The Snake Pit, a 1948 production, directed by Anatole Litvak, concerns mental illness, and Olivia de Havilland shines in the lead. Photographed in...

Three Coins in the Fountain is one of the quintessential early scope productions, brimming with wide shots of the hills of Rome, and those fountains, along with a slight case of mumps, inherent in the process As directed by Jean Negulesco, it was a crowd pleaser of the era, if only for the...

Ii have been thinking of getting the now expensive twilight time version of

I've always loved this film, but have never seen it in the quality offered by Twilight Time, from Columbia's latest video master. To my mind, it's always seemed to be film by Frank Capra, as channeled through John Ford. It has so many attributes of both filmmakers, that it's difficult to see...

I'm a big fan of Oliver Stone but I was disappointed with Twilight Time's recent release of Talk Radio, as the master used is dated and looks no better than a DVD, when projected. The poor picture quality actually hides the occasional scratches and speckles on the print. Also, the lack of...

i know it’s a long shot. Thought I’d post here in case anyone wants to sell their copy. Thanks!
