Episode 268: Get Busy Living Or Make That Three Hard-Boiled Eggs

Movies never stop and neither do the Blu-rays which is why Erik Childress and Sergio Mims continue to talk about them so you can build your physical media collection. It may only be on DVD but any cornucopia of Richard Pryor material is a gift and they discuss a new one from Time-Life. Sergio digs into the Arrow release of Ridley Scott’s Legend and Criterion’s The Damned. They go through a variety of titles from Kino and a pair of major 4K releases from Warner Bros. that bring both praise and reservations for their classic status. Finally they dig into the Warner Archive to discuss a problematic Errol Flynn film, a great James Stewart western, an overlooked Dustin Hoffman performances and one of the funniest comedies of all-time that is a must-have. 0:00 - Outro 2:04 – Time-Life (The Ultimate Richard Pryor Collection) 8:26 – Arrow (Legend) 15:12 – Criterion (The Damned) 25:20 – Kino (The Comedy of Errors, The Tomb of Ligeia, Arabesque, Masquerade, The Last Sunset, The Hunter Will Get You, Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid) 58:12 – Warner Bros.
