Re: Reelclassicdvd.com is 10 Years Old!

Thanks very much for the good wishes!

I'm glad you enjoyed your Christmas presents, Joe. I appreciate it.

No Cinefest for me this year, Louie. It's been several years since I've been able to attend and I do miss it.

Re: Chaplin Mutuals 90th Anniversary Edition back in print

I guess I should step in here to keep the record straight. The Reelclassicdvd.com versions of the Chaplin Mutuals DO NOT derive from David's laserdiscs - period. I am also looking forward to the new versions. I'm sure they will be spectacular in HD! Mark http://www.reelclassicdvd.com" target="_blank

The extras appear throughout the 4 DVD set, so they are not available as a separate item.

I'll leave it to a neutral party to discuss quality differences between the Milestone and Reelclassicdvd releases.

Yes, I was wondering about the bridge myself. Apparently it's been there since at least the turn of the last century. With a quick Google search I found an old postcard that pictures the bridge in 1907. I'll work on the water flow thing for you when I have more time. :wink: Mark www.reelclassicdvd.com

Hi Danny, I'm still convinced it's the same location. Naturally, you need to make allowances for the angle. Look at the large rectangular rock on the lower left, but look especially at the bumpy protrusions on the cliffs to the right. They're exactly the same. Also, with the exception of Niagra, Pat...

Does the reelclassicdvd have the colour recreated scenes that is included in the milestone/photoplay release ?
The Reelclassicdvd Bal Masque is in color up until the point Raoul and Christine escape to the rooftop of the Paris Opera.

Very cool indeed. How might the visual quality of your 1925 print compare with that of the Milestone release? As far as sharpness and contrast, the two versions are very similar. Coming from separate film sources there will be some differences. As far as I know, however, the Reelclassicdvd release ...

Yes, it would be. Keep in mind, however, that what I'm offering is an authorized release of a beloved ...
