  1. > I'm not sure what studio owns the rights to the film. It was a Universal release but it looks > like Republic was the home video distributor. If Universal was the original theatrical distributor, they probably still own the rights. The R2 DVD available from Amazon.co.uk seems to be a Spanish release from Universal Home Video - another indication they probably still control worldwide rights. Now, remember that Universal will occasionally lease their movies to other home video companies like Criterion. I don't know if that's what happened with the VHS release; however if Universal still has the rights, there's always a chance they could lease it to Criterion for a DVD release
  2. A while back, TCM released this information regarding its plans for October 2009: *TCM PRESENTS: THRILLERS ? October* In the first of its new series of original documentary specials looking at specific genres of cinema, TCM focuses on thrillers, including film noir classics and Alfred Hitchcock nail-biters. Darryl Frank and Justin Falvey are executive producers for Dreamworks on the documentary series. Laurent Bouzereau is writer/producer/director.

  4. Bad news from classicflix.com - apparently they were _misinformed_. Our original source regarding The African Queen was wrong and it is not on the schedule for this October. Our studio source also cannot confirm its impending release. Sorry for the hub bub.
  5. Ryan, Lt. (J.G.) 'Rusty' - John Wayne in They Were Expendable
  6. Claire Trevor was in Stagecoach with John Carradine
  7. Lobby still for The Cariboo Trail (showing on TCM today at 6:30pm ET)
  8. I would agree with Kathy, also speaking strictly for myself.
  9. Another good silent set during WW1 is Rex Ingram's The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse with Rudolph Valentino. :x
  10. From blu-ray.com: Severin Films, the self-proclaimed 'Criterion of Smut', is soon entering the Blu-ray arena. True to form, the studio has announced two war movies for July 28: 'Eagles Over London' and the macaroni-combat classic 'The Inglorious Bastards', which will be followed in August 25 by the 1980s high-school sex comedy 'Screwballs'. No information on specs has been released, but both 'The Inglorious Bastards' and 'Eagles Over London' will include all-new interviews with Quentin Tarantino and Enzo Castellari. And some bad news from classicflix: Our original source regarding The African Queen was wrong and it is not on the schedule for this October. Our studio source also cannot confirm its impending release. Sorry for the hub bub.
  11. > {quote:title=Terrence1 wrote:}{quote} > Well, here's another Joel McCrea fan. He always seemed to be such a gentleman, even when he played less than perfect people. He was paired with Barbara Stanwyck several times, and I've always felt that they made such a great team. Good point, Terrence. Here is a list of their movies together: *Gambling Lady* (1934) *Banjo on my Knee* (1936) *Internes Can't Take Money* (1937) *Union Pacific* (1939) *The Great Man's Lady* (1942) *Trooper Hook* (1957)
  12. > {quote:title=finance wrote:}{quote} > For whatever reason, after about 1945 he played exclusively in Westerns. According to some biographers, he'd wanted to focus on Westerns almost from the beginning of his career, but he'd had a hard time convincing studio executives to let him make more of them. Once he had some clout, he was able to stick with that genre.

  14. > {quote:title=movieman1957 wrote:}{quote} > That's funny. It sure looked like 5000 screaming kids at the opening. My favorite Newmar role (which I can't seem to find) is she played a girl at the laundry that each of The Monkees fell in love with and tried to woo her over the 25 minutes of the episode. Sounds like the "Monkees Get Out More Dirt" episode from the first season, with Julie Newmar as "April Conquest":
