Description

George Feltenstein joins the podcast to discuss three new Warner Archive Blu-rays releasing on March 14th.  First up is the drama  FLAMINGO ROAD (1949), starring the Joan Crawford, Zachary Scott, Sydney Greenstreet. Crawford is an ex-carnival dancer who marries a local businessman to get revenge on a corrupt political boss.  The Blu-ray includes a nice batch of extras, which George describes in detail.Next George reviews the 1949 Technicolor musical romantic comedy NEPTUNE’S DAUGHTER, starring the talented Esther Williams, Red Skelton, Ricardo Montalban, and Betty Garrett.  This film features the Academy Award-winning song “Baby, It’s Cold Outside,” by Frank Lesser. The release also has a robust amount of extras, and we discuss them in detail.And third, we review the witty THE PRINCE AND THE SHOWGIRL (1957) starring Marilyn Monroe and Laurence Olivier, who also directed.  This British romantic comedy was the first film produced by Monroe’s production company at Warner Bros.  This new Blu-ray release finally restores the film to the proper aspect ratio and with the new HD scan and audio clean-up, is a tremendous upgrade from all previous releases.Pre-order on Amazon:Flamingo Road Blu-rayNeptune’s Daughter Blu-rayThe Prince and the Showgirl Blu-ray The Extras Facebook pageThe Extras Twitter Warner Archive & Warner Bros Catalog GroupOtaku Media produces podcasts, behind-the-scenes extras, and media that connect creatives with their fans and businesses with their consumers.
