Rating: - HOW CAN YOU SAY IT'S GREAT?
I tried out every dvd in the collection and there's no sound. No, it's not my DVD player. It has music, just no talking. It skips over the option to play in English. This is the second time this has happend. The other movie was "The Bad Seed" The Sixth sense works fine though and the movie I got for my daughter "Bridges" is fine.
Rating: - Wonderful Trip into the Past
These movies brought back childhood memories that I can share with my child. I was so happy to find an original version of these classics.
Rating: - Holiday set
Warner Bros. Classic Holiday Collection (Boys Town / A Christmas Carol 1938 / Christmas in Connecticut)
I bought this for my husband who loves old films. He loved watching these classics especially 'A Christmas Carol' which, he said 'scared the pants off him' when he was a boy.
We are very pleased with our purchase.
Rating: - Not necessarily "Holiday" movies
Christmas in Connecticut has a Christmas tree and the movie takes place over Christmas, however beyond that, it is not a Christmas movie. No presents, no caroling, no Bedford Falls type of moments. Boys town is definately not a Christmas movie - not sure how it ended up in this collection. A Christmas carol of course is Christmasy and belongs here. Beyond that, the extras are adequate and the transfer is good.
Rating: - Don't skip buying this collection
I wont go into movie details since other reviewers have written some great reviews on the movie content. I will say that this is a MUST for your Holiday Movie Collection. The 3 movies all add to the excitement of the holiday spirit. My holiday wouldn't be complete, especially without watching the light-hearted and fun "Christmas in Connecticut". Even my husband who is not into these classics caught himself sitting back and watching the film, laughing, while I had it playing.
I like to have these films on in the background also, replacing holiday music, during afternoon decorating, cooking, or even when guests come over.
This is a great investment.... all three movies at a great price. Don't pass it up!
