Well, on a positive note, I got my copy of the restored WHEN COMEDY WAS KING this weekend. And I'm happy to say it lived up to my expectations. Wonderful job, and it's not hyperbole to say the film has never looked better on a home release.
Then again, I never owned the two-reel cut-down Americom 8mm release with the vinyl soundtrack. (Getting ready to duck).
All kidding aside, even if you have this on the previous DVD release (from Genius Entertainment, not Image as I wrongly thought), this is well-worth the double dip.
Richard, any possibility of future Youngson fix-ups?
