New from Warner Archive--Maya: The Complete Series, Jay North from Dennis the Menace Goest to India
Classic Movies Posted by KC on Sep 3, 2014
The lavishly-filmed Maya stars Jay North in a television role worlds apart from his famous turn as Dennis the Menace. Shot on location in India, it was an expensive show, and so-so ratings could not justify the cost beyond a single season. It's an unusual and interesting program though, and well wor read more

She is an urchin pretending to be grown up, having the time of her life in Mother’s moth-eaten finery, tottering about in high-heeled shoes and sipping ginger ale as though it were a champagne cocktail.

New From Warner Archives: Out of the Past (1947) on Blu-ray and Teresa Wright in Enchantment (1948)
Classic Movies Posted by KC on Aug 27, 2014
Watching the newly-released Blu-ray of Out of the Past (1947) took home viewing to a new level for me. It's jaw dropping beauty can be described endlessly, but is best experienced.
The picture is sharp and clear, but shimmers with just the right amount of grain to warm the images. I occasional read more

She had a huge amount of charisma. You have no idea. She walked into that room and you could feel her energy. You could just feel it. It was kind of overwhelming.

New From Warner Archive: Joe E. Brown in You Said a Mouthful (1932) and Local Boy Makes Good (1931)
Classic Movies Posted by KC on Aug 18, 2014
I was excited when Warner Archive released several Joe E. Brown movies recently. I'd always liked the comic actor, who was best known for his astonishingly large mouth, but I'd only seen him in two of his later films, Some Like it Hot (1959) and Hollywood Canteen (1944).
His appearance in Canteen w read more
