Hopefully East of Eden too. If it is indeed coming out, I wonder why they’d choose Giant as the first title from the James Dean set to make it to 4K. It’s the least highly regarded of the three films, and Dean doesn’t have as big a part in it.

So if you're like me, you may have forgotten to add the exclamation mark. Once I added it, the code worked.

There’s an exclamation point at the end of the sentence declaring the code that I read as marketing exuberance, but apparently it’s part of the code - Archive13!

This was a pretty good deal. Not quite as good as WBShop's old 4 for $44 (+ $11 each after), especially when there were coupon codes that you can throw on top of the old WBShop deals, but with shipping charges, ten titles wound up being a little over $13 each in total. Amazon and DD haven't done better than that partly because of taxes.

Why is the bottom text aligned to the bottom of the one versus the serif top? It should be aligned to the bottom of the last zero to match or both pushed to the widest point of either end. There, that will be $80,000 please WB

According to the Home Theater Forum, the following are coming in May:
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1941)
The Carey Treatment (1972)

And the 1931 version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde will be coming in time for Halloween.

Best news for WAC since Brothers Grimm's announcement.

This came out last year, and there was some foofaraw about revisionism in the color grading. It seemed like a clear case of making the perfect the enemy of the extremely good, and this is indeed a superb looking transfer.

If you don't already own this restoration on Blu-ray, it's available now on the TCM app. The network ran it Monday night as part of their Flynn Star-of-the-Month lineup.

Every time there is no announcement of I Walked With A Zombie and Seventh Victim, I worry all the more that Discovery head honcho Zaslav is going to pull the plug on George and Warner Archives before they get those Lewtons out.

I have to think there is an outside chance CC has one or both of these

Glad for the Clock but they could have kept the other two. I think that only leaves Garland’s Andy Hardy movie left from the big DVD box, right?

You're welcome everyone, I just bought The Clock and For Me and My Gal on DVD this month. (The former has been a favorite of mine since I first saw it on TCM and I resisted buying the DVD for years, but finally decided that if it was coming on BD anytime soon it would at least be in HD on digital platforms by now. Incredible. Still never seen the latter; maybe now I'll wait for the blu-ray?)

I quite like the title number of For Me and My Gal where Garland and Kelly discover their chemistry for the first time. But the rest is pretty forgettable, especially compared to the other movies they starred in together.

If this a Garland month, would be nice to see Babes in Arms on blu-ray as a part of WAC...
