I just checked and they are still on YouTube. So is the Cohan silent version. So you have nothing to whinge about.
yeah, I grabbed the 1929,35 and 47 versions.
the 35 and 47 versions look like they have the best visual quality.

I always watch it, a great great film. based on Ray Bradbury short story 'the foghorn'. the rhedosaurus deserves some credit for swallowing cecil kellaway in the bathysphere.
later on a good episode of lost in space and I always watch the invaders. Roy Thinnes deserves a new shot at playing David Vincent again in some update of the series. bleep that 1995 sheet with Elizabeth Pena. do it right and do it with Roy!...
"the invaders, alien beings from a dying planet. their destination: the earth. their purpose: to make it their world. David Vincent has seen them...
for him it began one lost night on a lonely country road looking for a shortcut that he never found. it began with a closed deserted diner and a man too long without sleep to continue his journey...
it began with the landing of a craft from another Galaxy. now David Vincent knows that the invaders are here, that they have taken human form.
somehow he must convince a disbelieving world that the nightmare has already begun!"

Rosalind Russell acts throughout the movie like it is all about her. whatta obnoxious harridan.
"my film! mine! mine! mine!"
and she's pretty obnoxious as auntie mame too.

Rin Tin Tin had more talent in his right front paw than Shirley Temple had in her whole body.
Martin Kosleck was a better propagandist than Joseph Goebbels.
Alfred Hitchcock is both the most overrated and underrated director of the studio era.
David O. Selznick was more handsome than Gary Grant.
James Dean made tastier sausages than Jimmy Dean.
Claudette Colbert had a neck.
Greer Garson was a bigger bull dykee than Deborah Kerr.
Clifton Webb would have won a arm wrestling contest with Victor Mature.

Well, based on what I read on the message boards in the last 11 years, I would say:
John Williams is a great composer.
Meryl Streep is a great actress.
31 Days of Oscar is a fun event I look forward to every year.
Marlon Brando's enunciation is clear and easy to understand.
Some movies made after 1960 are just as good, if not better, than movies made before.
Dr. Zhivago is a great movie.
Heaven's Gate is a great movie.
Ishtar is funny.
Robert Osborne made mistakes.
compared to James Dean in Giant marlon is perfectly understandable in all of his films.

no complaints about pretty natalie but Rosalind Russell as her mother is enough to send a funeral up an alley.

they're running Gypsy this month on movies! whatta horrible film. rosalind russell at her most obnoxious. she is so obnoxious in this movie she makes rosemary the schoolteacher look like greer garson.
there's this one scene where someone insults her and karl malden who plays some schtootz named herbie (he wants to mary her!) comes to her defense to defend her honor and virtue. afterwards russell stomps over to this poor deluded wretch, wraps her arms around his head and delivers one great big rough brutal smooch and this was supposed to charm the audience??? the guy is a mental case. why not marry a nest of hornets.
oh, last not movies! showed Robin and the seven hoods. I actually watched it.
some of the most lame musical numbers I ever sat through. you got this one number with frank, bing and dean singing about class. awful! I'd rather sit through russ tamblyn and the yawning man ten times rather than that again.
femme fatale a lovely Barbara rush puts the screws to them and they wind up closing the film as sidewalk santy clauses. bing crosby wasn't too bad with his orphanage do-badder routine. one of the kids is manuel padilla jr. who would go on to play jai on tarzan.

vic morrow also was good in the 1975 tv-movie the night that panicked America with Eileen brennan as his wife but tcm can't air it because it's tv fare.
-
yeah, van cleef yet another tough jersey badass.
-
vic morrow as saunders IS Combat!. the man made that series work.
whenever I think of the loss of morrow I think of it as a great loss to underrated acting.

Sophia and Raquel are great ladies but a little too earthy and fleshy for my taste,
but I'm a woman and prefer the ones who are elegant and slender in clothes,
rather than the ones who are most sexy out of them.
{Am I the only one who noticed Sophia looks like she swallowed a cantaloupe in that bikini picture?}
yeah, who needs fleshy babes.
