Re: Nitrateville Comment Dept: Laurel and Hardy Year One

When the next Sennett set comes out, wouldn’t it be fun to label it Vol. 3? Imagine the lifelong quest it will unleash among those searching for the elusive Vol. 2. You could make the film.set Vol 3 & the booklet inside Vol 2. The OCD folks would go crazy looking for what is right under their n...

Re: Coming in October..........

Wow! These are films that somebody like me has really looked forward to seeing . I ordered the set from Deep discount.

Re: Nitrateville Nonsense: THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA

It is nice when 3 seconds of a great film are found, but to put out the money to reissue & get enough folks to pay for a new disc- unless the difference is volumes &/or story changing, it isn't for me. There are so many titles that could better use the funds - films that haven't come out on ...

Re: SPEEDY Original Trailer (1928) Harold Lloyd

This lists on the top left corner" not for broadcast".

I assume this is what was shown in theaters to get people to come in the following week to see "Speedy"?

This was a real treat to see.

Great short! Dorothy Devore is fantastic.......& when you think Babe London was just a throw-away part, she steals the show at the end.
