Did MGM/UA lose the rights to these?

That's what they are telling us....

Oh well, I am happy you were able to get them released for us in the first place. They were first day purchases for moi.

From my viewpoint, this is another positive argument for the retention of physical media (DVD, Blu, UHD-Blu) as a movie purchase option.
If these 3 titles were strictly streaming or Net-based, your "purchase" could disappear and you're left with nothing as we've already seen on occasion. With these TT Blus, once bought, they're yours.

Please note the the following 3 titles by Fancois Truffaut are especially sale-priced at SAE as they will be shortly going out of print:

THE BRIDE WORE BLACK - $9.95
THE STORY OF ADELE H - $9.95
MISSISSIPPI MERMAID - $9.95

Well you got me. I have been on the fence with these titles and now pulled the trigger. Thanks for the the sale and heads up. [emoji3][emoji3][emoji3][emoji3]

I went for Bride and Mermaid. A real bargain, thanks very much!

I actually saw this abomination on t.v. about 25 years ago. It might be fun to have it as a bonus feature, but we all want the original, looking as pristine as source materials allow. The other sword and sorcery MGM/United Artists titles I would love on Blu-ray are THE MAGIC SWORD and CAPTAIN SINDBAD.

I so agree with the above regarding Jack the Giant Killer, The Magic Sword, and Captain Sindbad

Like to see more Truffaut like Two English Girls or Small Change..

It appears that the MGM/UA Truffaut titles Twilight Time have already released are going out of print, as apparently MGM has lost its licenses to them. We can only hope that some other outlet will finally give us SMALL CHANGE, TWO ENGLISH GIRLS, THE WILD CHILD, etc.

If you're a Bernard Herrmann fan, don't miss the TT edition of BRIDE WORE BLACK. Aside from the isolated score track, there's a second disc that contains a 79 minute audio conversation with Herrmann! Subsequent releases of BRIDE WORE BLACK might not contain that bonus disc.

Mississippi Mermaid and The Bride Wore Black have been on my list for a while. Swell discount.

Screen Archives have the St. Valentine's Day Massacre on sale for $14.95 until tomorrow (2/17) This is a very good disc with superb, clean images. The film is a splendid gangster movie, an absolute must-see for anyone who likes gangster films.

I'll never forget my first viewing of this film in the Merritt Theater back in day. Of course, I already own this BD.

You made me bite on this one. A blind buy, but your recommendation about the extra disc and the low price got me.

In previous years they have been in February. I'm hoping for another 3D title from the 1950's.

And I'm hoping for some titles from the 1960s and 1970s.

 

[David Weicker]

At the very least, I'm hoping for You Were Never Lovelier

 

[Jobla]

Hoping for THE EFFECT OF GAMMA RAYS ON MAN-IN-THE-MOON MARIGOLDS.
