Happy New Year 2024!

[William Ferry]

Happy New Year fellow Mafiosi! May the coming year bring you joy, peace, and plenty of goodies. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to burn some 1928 PD material to DVD to sell at my local flea market (after Covid, is that even a thing anymore?)

Or as my dear Uncle Jack might have said to me, "Don't miss that STEAMBOAT, WILLIE".

OK, Richard, I'll go offstage quietly, now.

Yes, over at the even-more-boring-than-usual Nitwitvile we were having a good laugh about the big deal being made there about a release of THE WEDDING MARCH with it's original Movietone track, I've had a nice 16mm print of that with score and Technicolor sequences for decades, and it was far from a one-of-a-kind. Here are the notes from a Cinevent showing of it years ago:

It's nice that the Public is finally re-claiming Domain on these titles that were stolen from us by Sonny Bono and the Big Mouse Corporation a number of years ago.
