According to this often-reliable source, a box set is due later in 2007:

The moderators seem to have done a sterling job in removing them and should be praised for this, rather than criticised, in my view.

On the subject of musicals on DVD, I hear Can-Can is coming in May - not one of the greats, perhaps, but it has some great songs and singers!

Also, apparently Where's Charley and Mame are 'in prepa ...

It would be terrible to close down the discussion forum because of some infantile people spamming it all the time!

One of the very best things about Laureate, aside from the quality of the product ...

I noticed it was down, too - good to see it back!

Is Laureate currently producing anything new we could be getting excited about? I loved Daddy Long Legs, but it's time for more!

Yes, I've ordered the Partial one, too. It arrived on Tuesday, in fact, and so far I've watched Roberta and the bonus DVD documentary 'Partners in Rhythm'.

It's perhaps a bit disappointing that (s ...

It's a big shame that you're not able to do Royal Wedding any more - it would have been great to get a better print whilst retaining all the great features on the existing release.

I saw this thoroughly despicable 8 DVD boxset on sale in HMV yesterday for £14.99 - an indication, perhaps, that the public aren't as foolish as Universal might like to think...

Still no news on this?

I finally bought the Classic Musicals from the Dream Factory set when I was in New York last week, and was surprised by how much I enjoyed Three Little Words - not least bec ...

PostForum: Astaire and his films   Posted: Mon Nov 06, 2006 8:52 pm   Subject: Is there a UK discography of Fred Astaire albums?
Although it's not his best nor perhaps my favourite Astaire album, I always liked the LP of 'Three Evenings with Fred Astaire'.

It's a memento of his TV shows and includes the three medleys he pe ...

Hi Ken,

I'm all in favour of new transfers, new commentaries and refurbished soundtracks, but according to HMV, all that you mention is on the 2-disc set which is being released at the same time. A ...

It seems that the third disc consists of previous film versions of the Wizard and a documentary about Baum - isn't this going a bit too far? More on Judy or Harold Arlen would have been more exciting ...

Do you think the TV specials will ever be released on DVD? (Eg An Evening with FA) I don't think they have been so far? I assume they still exist in some form?

I got round to finish watching Box 1 ...

I hate to sound miserable, but I wonder why they are spending so much time on this one film - great though it be - when so many films have yet to make it to DVD at all? Or is it just me?

Thanks GB!

The less said about Universal the better - they can't even spell Astaire!

On a completely different matter, Ken - at the time, was it known that Hermes Pan did Ginger's taps on the so ...
