A perfect tribute to the greatest musical talents we’ll ever see!

That’s Entertainment!I saw this movie occasionally on PBS when I was a kid and I bought the collector’s edition of the entire series in ’98 and each time I watch it I feel more and more nostalgic about the old Hollywood musicals-a genre of which we’ll never see an equal. Gene Kelly, Judy Garland, Fred Astaire, Cyd Charisse, Leslie Caron, Eleanor Powell and Ann Miller are the stars who really show off their great talents in this production of selected clips which include highlights of “Broadway Melody of 1938”, “The Wizard of Oz”, “Meet Me in St. Louis”, “An American in Paris”, “Singin’ in the Rain”, “Seven Brides for Seven Brothers” and “High Society” among others. There’s also a whole roster of legendary guest stars: Frank Sinatra, Elizabeth Taylor, Peter Lawford, James Stewart, Mickey Rooney, Donald O’Connor, Debbie Reynolds, Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire, Bing Crosby and even Liza Minelli just at the start of her career. They introduce some of the greatest moments in the history of the MGM Musical genre. It’s great fun for anyone who loves the musicals of a gone-forever age.

showcasing MGM’s finest

That’s Entertainment! In the mid-seventies, when MGM as a producing force in studio history was pretty much dead, a couple of researchers started to put together a compilation of the greatest moments from the birth of the talkie to Gigi’s glut of Academy Awards at the end of the 1950s. The idea of this first ‘That’s Entertainment!’ was to showcase the cream of the musicals, using a number of MGM’s former contact stars (Frank Sinatra, Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire, Elizabeth Taylor, Mickey Rooney et al) to link segments together.

The result was so breathtaking and brilliant that two further sequels followed; one almost immediately, and the third after a gap of twenty years, in time for MGM’s seventieth birthday. This first compilation shows us sequences from ‘An American In Paris’, ‘Singin’ In The Rain’, ‘The Harvey Girls’, ‘Hollywood Revue’, and on, and on. It has special segments devoted to Astaire, Kelly, Garland, Garland with Rooney, and, er, Esther Williams.

Deal at your own risk.

Slow to ship and no confirmation once sent. Reverse cover art states a 16:9 presentation but transfer is 4:3 pan & scan. No response from seller when this issue was raised.

A good DVD but episodes out of order.

A good DVD, but the episodes were misnumbered and out of order. Not a problem once the viewer realises and watches episodes in correct order.

Erg blij met deze komische horror film, was deze al een tijdje aan het zoeken!

Battletruck dvd

I received my dvd of the movie Battletruck a couple of weeks ago but I've been away so couldn't watch it until last night.
Great old classic that brought back a few memories.
I purchased it at a great price and it arrived in good condition and in good time.
I would have no hesitation in recommending these guys to anyone who is looking for a hard to find classic movie.
