I have this collection and watched Port of New York - it was great!

The quality of the print is pretty rough, but all in all, still very much worth it!

I agree. I don't think this generation realises just how much of a novelty it is to actually view old films , or any films for that matter, on a dvd. When I was growing up you either saw it on television and on the station's programming schedule or at a revival movie theater. Other than that, youhad to be wealthy to own a 16 millimeter movie projector and purchase a print or you were a film student and used the university's projection room. It was difficult, so when I read these posts complaining about the quality of the movie, well...

I have that collection and it's great! Liked "Port of New York" a lot, though to me "Quicksand" was the best movie of the collection.

Agreed. I think it's time for me to give the collection a second viewing. Thanks for the reminder!
