A Prince, a Cabin, a Pre-Code, and a Horse, of course!

from The Extras · host George Feltenstein

Send us Fan MailGeorge Feltenstein of the Warner Archive joins the podcast to review four classic films released in January for the first time on Blu-ray. We're shining the projector light on the pre-code film "Faithless," (1932) where Tallulah Bankhead's riveting performance will grip you as we unravel the fabric of her character's tumultuous journey from riches to rags.  Next, we waltz through the restoration brilliance of "The Prince and the Pauper" starring the charismatic Errol Flynn and the Mauch twins.  Then we horse around with the timeless hilarity of the Marx Brothers in "A Day at the Races." We wrap up with the jazzy musical "A Cabin in the Sky," starring Ethel Waters, Eddie Anderson, and Lena Horne, and with appearances by Duke Ellington and Louis Armstrong.  It's a fantastic start to 2024 for fans of classic films.  We provide a review of each film,  the restoration, and all of the extras to help you decide if you want to add it to your physical media collection.Purchase links:A DAY AT THE RACES (1937) Blu-rayTHE PRINCE AND THE PAUPER (1937) Blu-rayCABIN IN THE SKY  (1943) Blu-rayFAITHLESS  (1932) Blu-ray Moviezyng Affiliate LinkThe Extras Facebook pageThe Extras TV YouTube ChannelThe Extras Twitter Warner Archive & Warner Bros Catalog GroupJoin our new public Facebook Group for Warner Archive Animation Fans and get the latest update on all the releases.As an Amazon and Moviezyng Affiliate, The Extras may receive a commission for purchases through our purchase links.  There is no additional cost to you, and every little bit helps us in the production of the podcast.  Thanks in advance.Otaku Media produces podcasts, behind-the-scenes extras, and media that connect creatives with their fans and businesses with their consumers.  Contact us today to see how we can work together to achieve your goals.  [email protected]
