Yes, I have just bought the 1956 Region 1 version of Anything Goes. I had not seen the film in years until a pan and scan showing on Sky earlier this year.

I noticed this afternoon that BBC2 showed a restored version of "King Kong" as part of a two film tribute to the late Fay Wray.

I have just seen the Deanna Durbin Sweetheart Pack Region 1 release and I am pleased with the quality.

Here's another vote for more Ginger Rogers please on DVD.
I would buy every single title mentioned in this thread and as Ken said, Ginger's output was perhaps more varied than just an association wit ...

I have 5 of the 7 Road films on DVD, but would very much like to acquire the other two (Bali and Rio).
However, reading comments here and in other forum sites would I be right in thinking that these ...

Jack's thoughts on the AFI tributes is a good one. I too loved those tribute shows to people like Billy Wilder and Barbara Stanwyck etc. Marvellous.

Good to hear that You Were Never Lovelier is on ...

I think you have hit the spot exactly Ken, when you say that the music played in many of these stores is the choice of the staff for the staff rather than what may please the customers and in turn ind ...

Ken, I know from reading this site and the films that you have released that you have a strong association with Universal. As such I would like to recommend a TV movie from the early 1970s (I know pos ...

Thanks for all the information.
In truth I don't think there are many mediums now in which this kind of material will be available. As such I will buy them and look forward to the second set and in p ...

One film of Bing's I would love to see (and even better own on DVD) is "Anything Goes". I know Bing made this film twice and would dearly love to have both versions, but in particular I would like the ...
