This looks really interesting! Thanks. I'm sorry I didn't see it sooner - right now I have to go to bed - but I'll definitively check it out tomorrow. A Jean Harlow box set, that sounds great! I know some of her more famous films are already on DVD, but still, what about the pre-codes? |

Being a "noiraholic" I hope that "The-Power-That-Be" :thumbsdown: release film noir titles that either equal or are greater :thumbsup: (If that is possible, but of course!) than the titles that they are NOT releasing as part of the fifth Film Noir box. Btw, I do own all the titles above on Dvd-r, (with the exception of....Riffraff, and The Clay Pidgeon, but I would like to own them all on dvds with extras....) FNF |

Yeah babyyy Greed coming the legendary Greed movie directed by Erich Von Streierm Kelly, I didn't know that the information below was an April Fool's Joke  that Gary, played  on his (DVD Beaver) readers yesterday, but I'am sooo...glad that I didn't post that link here on the diner message board. (Along with the Digitalbit link...which is not a "joke!") or.... ....I would "never" have been allowed 'back" here on the board  ...especially, if you would have read the article about the film Greed at the bottom of the article. [See Link Below....] (To be honest, I'am still "fuming" :irate: over the fact, that the 1945 film Detour isn't being restored.) www.dvdbeaver.com/Beavers_initial_Blu-ray_line.htmFNF  |

Wow, there was a Stage Struck from 1948? And those pre-codes look great too! Thanks for the info. However, I'm finding myself more and more skeptical to the idea. Some of these films are classics that should get a general release. How are the classics going to become acknowledged as such when they're not made available outside of these little spheres of special interest? I wonder. |
