Splurge of silent (and not-so-silent) movie love!


I have just so splurged and bought myself a New Year's present, Murnau, Borzage and Fox, a set released by 20th Century Fox which contains 2 Murnau and 10 Borzage movies, most of which I have desperately wanted on DVD, plus a documentary on the two directors.

I...can't...fight it!

Set here.

So splurgy yet so wonderful. Now, if somebody would only do a King Vidor set!

ETA: OMG, apparently they are doing a King Vidor set in 2009. I think The Crowd is the best silent movie I have ever seen, and Big Parade is the most anti-war (yet romantic) movie I have seen. And Show People is one of the funniest. Yes!!!

This is way off topic, but I wanted to know if you'd bought anything from sensasian.com. I want to purchase "To Grow With Love", but I'm a bit worried about the quality of the English subs. At $48 for the whole set, I need them to at least be a 4 out of 5!

I've bought from them before and they were fine but I think their subs vary on individual basis. Is it kdrama, twdrama or what? That might help me figure out sub quality.

It's a TVB series. I think it's Chinese.

Excellent! I haven't seen that one in forever. And John Gilbert was so handsome. (I can't help but be shallow. *g* But gorgeous stars or not, it was a great movie.)
