Swithin Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 A few months ago, someone on this board kindly pointed me to *...Edwin Drood* on YouTube. You have to watch it in installments, but it's there. I'm looking for *The Vulture*, an atmospheric 1967 British horror film with Akim Tamiroff, who occasionally turns into a big birdman. Takes place in Cornwall, as I recall. I thought it was online, but I couldn't find all of it. Link to post Share on other sites

rover27 Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I've acquired a copy of the Bette Davis DVD version of "Beyond the Forest"(1949). It's coming from overseas. If anyone is interested in trading for a copy, let me know. I'm still looking for the Bette Davis movie "Winter Meeting" (1948). It was on TCM in the past 6 months or so, but I didn't have a chance to record it. If anyone has a copy, I would be happy to trade. Link to post Share on other sites
ELIAZ Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I have a copy of WINTER MEETING recorded in December of 2007, and I'd be glad to trade for a copy of BEYOND THE FOREST. E.T. Link to post Share on other sites

Both of them Co-Starring Ronald Colman. I have never seen *DULCY* , but I have seen, *A PAIR OF SILK STOCKINGS, THE LOVE EXPERT* and *THE DUCHESS OF BUFFALO.* All of them great fun. *Constance Talmadge As Lola La Perry* Link to post Share on other sites

Mad66 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 It's amazing what you can get (in installments as you say) on YouTube. I watched *Crime Without Passion* there (a 1934 Claude Rains film - 1st independent film by Ben Hecht and Charles McArthur) .. and *The Last Outpost* (Rains and Cary Grant - 1935). Mind you - they eventually get removed. Edited by: Mad66 on Feb 16, 2011 7:51 AM Link to post Share on other sites

ChorusGirl Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 I'm not holding my breath for *Convention City*, the lost 1933 pre-Code comedy. But I guess that should be on my list too...more of a "Lost Ark" than a "Holy Grail." Somebody on You Tube tried to imagine what the opening credits would have been like...and they achieved the Warner Bros look of the period pretty well. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

That was a pretty clever job. I recognized the opening shot (the hand w/ cards) and the soundtrack from GRAND SLAM (1933). It worked quite well giving one an idea of what the opening might have looked like. Link to post Share on other sites
Mad66 Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Me too ! I've been searching for the *The Scoundrel*. What little I know about about it sounds fascinating -- Noel Coward as a scoundrel... something about being a ghost walking the earth ... and with Hecht and MacArthur's usual sense of rather black humour. It was their second film. Say .. if I could take this opportunity to ask a stupid question... *How do you get your responses to include the big white box with the text from the person you are directly responding to ?* ...

He did a great job on that, but as I told him last time I saw him, if he wanted to really be authentic and redo the audio on it, I know what the original music was for the opening titles of CONVENTION CITY and if he wanted to do it over using that tune, at least we purists would not be fooled. But then again, how many people would actually know the difference? But I did... Anyway, the original opening titles music for CONVENTION CITY was the tune "Lonely Lane" written by Sammy Fain & Irving Kahal, introduced by Dick Powell in the Warner Bros. feature COLLEGE COACH which was released the month before CONVENTION CITY. Dick Powell also recorded the song for Brunswick Records. So it was still a current popular song when audiences heard it in CONVENTION CITY. Link to post Share on other sites
