I'm hoping Santa brings me Blu-rays of the Reginald Denny Collection and Three Silent Classics by Josef Von Sternberg.

To finally see the Blue Collar Buster blu-ray set released in 2021 (I hope that this wasn't cancelled).

City Without Jews
Waxworks


and so long as I'm wishing, World Peace, being able to congregate with Nitratevillains at a screening - preferably 35 nitrate - and an autographed photo of Nigel de Brulier.

What I'd really love is a local Pittsburgh theater that presented silent movies at least once a week. I could even be less greedy and settle for once a month. I'd also love access to the Metro and MGM archives so I could do more research on June Mathis, Richard Rowland and others they worked with. I recently saw the picture of Rowland's grave at Homewood Cemetery in Pittsburgh. It's sad that such an important figure ended up so obscure.

I'd like to see Cohen Media's final entry in their Buster Keaton Collection, as well as The Crowd on blu-ray.

Would also dig Santa bringing me the Fellini Box set, Tex Avery Volume 2, and more early Hitchcock!

Thanks!

Tis the season to give.....but receiving can be good too! My first preference would be The City Without Jews, then Waxworks

After much thought concerning what vintage film-related 'things' [sic] we hope for this holiday season, Mrs Nazimovafan and myself have decided that we would like a gift certificate from Rambova Interior Design, Inc., so that we can have our bedroom decorated with mosaics just like in Camille and our living room done up in a similar fashion so then we can have friends over for a meal; but rather than the sort of friends that Camille has over we would have a better sort of person, like those who hang out at Nitrateville.
best wishes all and thank you Flicker Alley for your generosity.

Too much to ask for.... I wanted to put the new Eureka MOC release of 'The Last Warning' on my list, but just saw that I will be released in the new year. So, I put 'The Man Who Laughs' on my list. A Niles S8 print of Waxworks was my first exposure to that film, despite the appalling quality, I still enjoyed it. I can't wait to see the film properly, so yes, added the BluRay to my list. The Bolshevik Trilogy is added too.
Finally I added an end to the pandemic to my Christmas wish list. For many obvious important reasons, but also to get the chance to enjoy a show of a silent film with live music together with a large crowd of likeminded souls. I also wish for all those venues that put these shows on and all the people who make the shows possible to get through the coming months. I will double my efforts to support them as soon as it is possible again. Here is to a change for the better in the new year!

I'm anxiously awaiting for Vol. 2 of FA's Sennett collection to become available. Or did I miss it?

I was also hoping for the Vol 2 of The Mack Sennett
Collection, but I don't think it is out yet.

I was hoping for

City Without Jews
Laurel Or Hardy
L&H The Difinitive Collection
Agnes McFadden

I know it's good - I wrote it myself!

I'm lucky to know I'll getting L'inhumaine from Flicker Alley, if I remain on the 'nice' list, which has been high on my wish list for a long time but hard to get hold of in the UK. Been eyeing up eBay copies of their OOP Judex which I'd ordered once from someone's Amazon Marketplace years back and it never arrived. The Bolshevik Trilogy looks like a very impressive set, and haven't yet caught up with the restored The Lost World. Hooray for Flicker Alley!

Wish lists as long as my arm from Kino and Warner Archive in particular, edited highlights of new-ish titles include

The Shop Around the Corner
The Court Jester
Tex Avery vol 2
Foolish Wives

Hitchcock's Blackmail and Murder!
