Any Idea If This Can Be Seen

I just rented a DVD-R from CineFile Video (http://cinefilevideo.com/) in Santa Monica. I haven't got a chance to watch it yet, but the print seems to be in decent quality considering it is about 75 years old. I'd guess it's transferred from a 16mm reduction print. I'd love to see the Silent Movie Theatre screen it as well. Someone is selling a DVD copy on Ebay or you can pick up a VHS copy from Movies Unlimited http://www.moviesunlimited.com/).

Great news,

in the January 2009 issue of Classic Images, editor Bob King reports a recent conversation he had with Robert Osborne of Turner Classic Movies. On page 20, Mr. Osborne says that upon the conclusion of TCM's current 4 year lease of Columbia Pictures, TCM has a lease on Paramount and Universal classics to take their place!

This will undoubtably include scores of films making their premiere on TV like Underworld.

Classic Images promises more to information to follow in subsequent issues.

Woot!

Choosing peace requires greater courage.

Kim Hendrickson of the Criterion Collection has confirmed that Criterion will be releasing it, but I don't think an official release date has been set.

Had the great good fortune to see it tonight as part of the AFI Silver Theatre's 'Noir City' film noir series, with live soundtrack by Alloy Orchestra.

"I say, you move, and you're dead!" "And I say, I'm dead and I move..."

Criterion Collection has an excellent DVD (2010) that includes alternate soundtracks by Robert Israel and The Alloy Orchestra.

Included is a UCLA voice-over bio of the director with stills of him and many film collaborators.
