[Dailyan]

Now that's a more attractive pricing than the last "sale". I'll probably nab "Bound for Glory" and "Cowboy".

[Cremildo]

Perfect opportunity to grab I Want to Live!

EDIT: no, it's not. Shipping to Brazil is $13, which is ridiculous.

[The Screaming Feces]

I gotta be selective right now, so I’m picking up any Fox titles I’ve been wanting—I doubt Disney will licence them in the future!

[Rzzzz]

This sale is much more like it. Normally I would wait for the $19.95 titles to drop but I figure I better just get everything I want now....

[CinemaScope]

Great stuff! I've at last ordered GENGHIS KHAN, $14.95, it's still £23 to the UK with postage, but a LOT cheaper that it would have been at full price with customs & post office charges.

[BagheeraMcGee]

Money's a little tight right now, but screw it...

I ordered The Big Fix, Oklahoma Crude, The Other Side Of Midnight, The World Of Henry Orient, Cinderella Liberty and Harry & Walter Go To New York.

[Dailyan]

Went with:

[Show spoiler]

[Gacivory]

Went with:

Devil in a Blue Dress
Melvin & Howard
Gloria

[HINDIBLUERAY]

My collection of 2018 titles is now completed. Picked up the following titles.

IN MY COUNTRY (2004)
THE BIG FIX (1978)
GENGHIS KHAN (1965)
THE OTHER SIDE OF MIDNIGHT (1977)
THE VIRGIN SOLDIERS (1969)
THE REVOLT OF MAMIE STOVER (1956)
CINDERELLA LIBERTY (1973)
MY SISTER EILEEN (1955)
MY GAL SAL (1942)

AUTO FOCUS (2002)
MANHATTAN MURDER MYSTERY (1993)
ANNE OF THE THOUSAND DAYS (1969)
LET'S MAKE LOVE (1960

[bonehica]

Always looking to add more Cassavetes, Wyler and Marilyn. Couldn't pass up The Vanishing for $5.95

[Show spoiler]

[StarDestroyer52]

Now this was a sale. I just got the one title for now. We’ll see if I can place another order or not.

[KJones77]

I'm hoping that The Last Hurrah will come to Indicator (they did say they were trying for those Ford-Columbia titles), so I'll hold off.

Once the sale goes live on TT's site (better shipping than SAE, it seems), I'll go with:

Yeah, I held back on seven more titles, hoping they'll hit 14.95 next time... but I could always do a second round if they get low. Too many of the $20 ones were ones I didn't want to wait on, especially since we don't know when they'll have another sale...

For now, I got:
Beat the Devil
The Bridge at Remagen
Cinderella Liberty
Gloria
Hell and High Water
The Incident
The Last Hurrah
Melvin and Howard
Model Shop
The Return of Frank James
Talk Radio
The Whole Town's Talking


This order will make John Ford the #1 most represented director in my collection, with 50 titles (mostly DVDs), pulling ahead of Hitchcock's 49 (mostly blus). That will last until Kino's box set is released...

[SeanJoyce]

Does anybody have any comment on Scorpio? I like the cast and plot, and I've been rather intrigued with Winner as of late.

I figure it can't hurt at $5.95.

[Page14]

I feel like I left so many on the table ... I might go back for more. But for now I went with:

ANOTHER WOMAN (1988)
BLACK WIDOW (1954)
THE DETECTIVE (1968)
GRAN BOLLITO (BLACK JOURNAL / 1977)
MY GAL SAL (1942)
THE L-SHAPED ROOM (1962)
THE LAST HURRAH (1958)
MY SISTER EILEEN (1955)
THE NEW CENTURIONS (1972)
SHORT NIGHT OF GLASS DOLLS (LA CORTA NOTTE DELLA BAMBOLE DI VETRO / 1971)

EDIT: I wouldn't have ordered so early in the sale except that I wanted to take advantage of the 50% off CD sale going on at SAE until midnight ET tonight. FWIW, I ordered the soundtrack for The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T. ... one of those childhood memories of a weird movie that sticks with you. If interested, the sale details are on their main page: http://www1.screenarchives.com/index.cfm

[Rzzzz]

I pretty much got everything I've been waiting on (and even one I wasn't, The Best of Everything). There are a few more I will get if they drop but for now, I am set. No more searching those damn Ebay auctions....

ROLLERBALL
MURPHY'S LAW
BEDAZZLED
GIDGET
THE BEST OF EVERYTHING
WILL SUCCESS SPOIL ROCK HUNTER?
KID GALAHAD
BANDOLERO!

Surprised to see Rollerball on there as I thought it was sold out. I picked it up even though I have the region B Arrow release....

I enjoyed “The Last Hurrah”; it’s a shame Jeffrey Hunter left us too soon.
