If the show didn't do as well as could be expected it could be due to any number of reasons, especially since it isn't the best-known R&H musical.

Super! Now if they will just release the Universal Dietrich Collection in the US like they have in Europe, I will be a very happy woman.
Me too!

That's a very insenstive question and totally irrelevant to the subject at hand, isn't it?
-
So do all movies that are affected by the ABEND decision basically stay out of the public's reach indefinitely? Can they ever fall into the public domain?
-
In that case it was just paid advertising

Those would have looked awesome in Technicolor

I could really dig Marlene Dietrich as SOTM... it would be a lovely month!

Well thanks again for the reminder I'll be sure to TiVo this on Thursday.

It was a very friendly rivalry, if that. I got a big kick out of watching them dance together onscreen one final time in That's Entertainment, Part 2.

Maybe not quite the *most* menacing, but Paul Scofield does an awful good job as the Nazi Colonel obsessed with looting France's art treasures in John Frankenheimer's The Train. You can see the pure hatred in his eyes, and his willingness to kill as many innocent French civilians as may be necessary to achieve his goal.

Klaatu... Barada... Nikto!

Target demographic? :0

Maybe you didn't miss much?

That's a beautiful thought...

Aside from being mysteries involving private eyes?

It could do that - but at what cost?

Disagreement is not an insult in my experience.
-
Can't answer for those who take a friendly sign in the wrong way. I'm still of the firm opinion that people can disagree vehemently with each other over some issues and still respect each other as human beings.

You missed the point. I thought klondike had addressed that to me personally. He later clarified that he didn't.
At any rate my concern is not with whether or not Disney was right or wrong to allow this to happen, but simply that it should be released on video just like all the other Disney movies.

Touch of Evil is good but you kinda wish Dietrich's part had been bigger.

Sorry, hun, the term "hun" is not meant to be taken in any other way than simply a friendly way to address someone whose participation in a discussion you appreciate. I can't imagine why you'd interpret that any other way. Same as calling someone "pal" or "friend".

SCHINDLER'S LIST was actually photographed in color, for two different reasons. One is that, over the decades in which fewer and fewer black-and-white films were made, the number of negative b&w film stocks dwindled to the point that Spielberg and his cinematographer, Janusz Kaminski, felt that those still made offered an insufficient range of tonal values to achieve all that they envisioned for the movie and, secondly, in case Speilberg and Universal got cold feet at the last minute as to the film's boxoffice prospects if released in black-and-white.
Wonder if Steven Soderbergh thought about that when making A Good German. Especially since he was his own DP.

Awesome contribution! Still waiting to watch my recording of Whirlpool.

Sweet, glad that you found us.
So.... seen anything good lately?

Nobody expects movies from decades past to be retro-fitted to fit today's expectations on what may be PC; I think the aspect of the stereotypes has to be acknowledged at least even though it doesn't need to spoil one's enjoyment of the film.
