I was sworn to secrecy on this but since it's now being offered on Amazon, I guess I can tell you about a forthcoming Blu Ray edition of the first five Marx Brothers movies — The Cocoanuts, Animal Crackers, Monkey Business, Horse Feathers and Duck Soup. These are fully-restored from in many cases, previously untapped prints to bring you the best images and sound ever, as well as the restoration of a few bits here and there you probably haven't seen before. (The print of Horse Feathers is still missing footage that is known to have been in it at one time. But what's there looks better than it ever did before on home video.)
Perhaps like me, you bought these movies on Beta and then you bought them on VHS and you bought them on Laserdisc and then you bought them on DVD and then you bought a couple different "new, improved" versions on DVD. Each time, you foolishly thought you had the best versions you could ever have and you'd never have to buy them again. Well, guess what.
Here's a link to advance-order what will undoubtedly, unquestionably be the absolute last time you'll have to buy home video versions of these five great movies. Until the next version.
[UPDATE: When I first posted this item, I credited the wrong person as its producer. Actually, I don't know who produced it but my apologies to him or her, and to the person I wrongly credited. The error was wholly mine.]
