Second Chance (1953) [No 3D Blu-ray]

[T. Warren Scollan]

I have two bad DVD's of this one. An analogue transfer from a TCM vhs with it's typical (by today's standards) rather poor image quality and a PAL with a pretty sharp image, but all PINK in color (Eastman print) and forced Spanish subtitles. Have good reason to believe that this might be possible from Warners soon. They're due for something "golden" soon and their last one being "Kiss Me Kate" tells me that they're not above "Cherry Picking" from all their owned titles, not just those they originally did.

The film stars two men who became giants in the industry, Robert Mitchum and Jack Palance. Filmed in the pretty part of Mexico in "Glorious Technicolor", it's a visual delight and a good thriller. All under the steady hand of director Rudolph Mate. I think this would be Warners best "Cherry Pick" choice.

Here's hoping----------
