Great collection Daniel. Warner need to release more Flynn and Cagney movies. It's driving me crazy that they haven't released Captain Blood yet on bluray!!! You HAVE to get "Angles With Dirty Faces", one of the best films warner ever made in the 30's. That one is amazing!
Thanks! I did see they’re releasing Gentleman Jim in December, so that’s an exciting Flynn to get on blu-ray! But yeah, I still cannot believe Captain Blood isn’t out yet.
Re "The Thin Man": something I didn't notice until I saw it on the big screen, is that the dining table reveal scene at the end is framed such that when you are looking up at it from a theatre seat, you feel like you are sitting at the table. Brilliant, especially for that early era. Also, since you said you are a Star Wars fan: I strongly suspect Hawks' "The Thing From Another World" was a major influence on the mostly-cut wampa subplots in "Empire Strikes Back". The visual similarity between the two ice bases certainly is there.
Wonderful Warner Collection. By the way, yesterday I got my Warner Blu-ray of "Robin Hood 1.938" and I was greatly surprised to see how wonderfully and well crafted this film is. Being the first time seeing it.. Took me by surprise. Just a perfect Hollywood Film Adventures in its best shape. Keep on posting more Videos and Greetings from Spain
yes, I'm the guy who was watching your Kino-Lorber towers sway -- so satisfying to see the laws of gravity catch up with you at last! you were overdue 🤣
Very late commenting, but I want to give a shout out for Night Shift. I love that movie. Henry Winkler and Michael Keaton are so good in this movie. I also love the iconic first scene. A slam dunk, you might say.
Gaslight is a very good suspense movie. I have it on my shelves. I never hated a character as much as I did Charles Boyer's for a long time. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Great list of movies. I love the variety.
I’ve talked about several of these in essays on my own channel (especially the noir films!). Still, it’s nice to see that if I choose to revisit them, these Warner Archive blu-rays are the way to go!
I don’t know if you have seen “The Bells Are Ringing” but the songs are classic and the love story is sweet and complicated. It is about a telephone answering service, which would be quite confusing to a modern smart phone oriented audience. It would be a great double bill entry with “Play It Again, Sam” for that reason.
I actually still haven’t, but thank you for recommending it! I keep forgetting to watch it, but I’ll prioritize it and talk about it in an upcoming monthly watchlist video. Thank you!
I think most of your comments were spot-on. My main disagreement would be your assessment of Tarzan’s Greatest Adventure. I think it is a top notch action/adventure film. An serious story with an intelligent hero, a ruthless villain & terrific supporting players.
I owned Dial M on blu ray years ago. I bought multiple copies, and unfortunately, I sold all of them. Been waiting for a release with a new transfer ever since.
Movie I'm most likely to watch for the first time this week: The Sea Wolf. ... movie I'm least likely to watch for the first time this week: The Long Trailer
@@cobwebschannel Here we have a different view absolutly 😀 It' s funny but for me he gave his best Performance in one of his last Films ,Return of the gunfighter' from 1966. Since I saw this I like him. And I love ,Westward the women' from 1951. You should see this picture , so good! 🙂
