They Drive By Night?
Wow! I didn't see that one coming!Me neither! Haven't seen that film since the old days of fuzzy UHF broadcasts. Can't wait to see it again!

She may not warrant a specific collection of her own, but I'd personally love to see Myrna Loy better represented on disc, as well,The way the format has taken off now, it's just a matter of time before we see the Sig Rumann Collection! Seriously, Myrna Loy had a very nice laserdisc box set devoted to her, so there's no reason to think a DVD box won't eventually turn up.
Which reminds me -- TCM did a documentary on her several years ago and called it "Myrna Loy: So Nice to Come Home To." I remember it later showing up on a list of upcoming video releases as simply "Myrna Loy: So Nice to Come..."
I don't want to be obvious but SURELY a full-on MALTESE FALCON can't be far off ?Maltese Falcon digitally restored by Lowry Digital Images would make a great DVD (and it is my favorite Bogart movie too). But I don't expect Warner to re-release it anytime soon.
The way the format has taken off now, it's just a matter of time before we see the Sig Rumann Collection!And I would be the first in line to buy it. A NIGHT AT THE OPERA, A DAY AT THE RACES, NINOTCHKA, HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN-did Sig ever make a bad film?
Now the question for me is, do I buy Dark Passage, a film I'm not that wild about, to get "Slick Hare," one of the funniest Bugs Bunny cartoons ever?Dark Passage gets better with multiple viewings. The camera work, San Francisco locations, the chemistry between the leads, Houseley Stevenson as the creepy plastic surgeon...it's all good.
And Slick Hare as a bonus makes it a no-brainer...whether you're a fan of Bogart, Bacall, noir, or Bugs Bunny.
