Thank you for sharing those photos, they are truly lovely.
I've been hearing about Disney Earth and even had invites for pre-release screenings, but I've not had a chance to watch it yet. I do think I will watch it, eventually.

I checked with my mom, she did watch Funny Girl earlier tonight.

As for The Bandwagon, I think it's one of the all-time greats and certainly one of the top musicals of the 50s. Vincente Minnelli was definitely at the top of his game, as were all the leads.
Here is the "That's Entertainment!" number:

The one with the triplets is also pretty cute.
I also love when Fred and Cyd dance in the park, it is very romantic. :x

My mom is a huge Streisand fan, I think she was going to watch it but I'm not sure if she did. I do, however, look forward to The Bandwagon on Sunday morning, the dance sequences are sublime. Their rendition of "That's Entertainment!" is very catchy, and I never get tired of listening to it.

> That's certainly true in the case of T.E. Lawrence: at the end of LAWRENCE OF ARABIA you really don't know any more about why he did the things he did than you knew before the film began but, as the saying goes, it's all about the journey (which all dramatic stories are, after all), and not the destination.
I don't know about that, CineSage. After watching Lawrence dozens of times, including many 70mm engagements, I think I have a pretty good idea why he did the things he did. But to try to put it into words could take me ages.

Hi Sam!

Try this:

A funny thing I noticed about the Funny Girl trailer is that it incorrectly said William Wyler had won 4 Academy Awards for Best Director. He actually won 3. No small achievement, of course!

Rest in Peace.

Hi BigIrish, and welcome to the forums

I believe the article that was quoted in the OP says the complete version is about 192 minutes, so you VHS copy could be considered "complete" in terms of running time.
I think the complete version was only released on VHS and laserdisc; the DVD is most certainly the shorter version.

Focus on Fritz Lang

> I just hope that Fox did at least a bit of restoration on the film, and didn't use the substandard print/master that airs on the Fox Movie Channel (which is missing part of the Main and End Titles).
I don't remember if it has been on FMC recently, but I haven't caught it there. However I would totally agree that they'd better have given it at least a bit of restoration. I don't mind buying classic titles on DVD unless they are obviously terrible video/audio transfers.
