I love this movie my mum got his movie on VHS so I wanted to get it on DVD
The DVD arrived in good time and met expectation
You have a wide range of interesting DVDs that I have been looking for and failed to find anywhere else
The movie was just as I remembered it. The only issue was with the first cd which would go blank every once in awhile though each time it was only for a couple of seconds so it didn't bother me that much. The second cd had no issues.
The transfer copy job is excellent based on the source copy now not really available. No real compression artefacts which is helped by the film being in B&W and a running length under 90 minutes
So any compression just to have the movie fit on the disc is extremely minor.
As to the film, it's a solid little western. Joel McCrea is one of those actors who look as if they give nothing to their performance but in fact give much (not unlike Gary Cooper and Clint Eastwood early in their careers). He certainly adds gravitas and the support players don't lack for anything in their performance.
Not a John Ford or Raoul Walsh by any degree but good solid matinee entertainment to while away those late afternoons.
Good seller to deal with, I enjoy the movie Many thanks
Hi delivery was great and well wrapped so dvd was safe..
I’ve just finished watching the film and thank you for good quality dvd
Hello! The problem was the audio. you were kind enough to try sending it again, but it was very low quality and no subtitles, thus the 1-star review. When I said that the quality was too low to really watch the film, I requested a refund. I got no further response and that's where the communication stopped. That's the disappointing truth.
Thanks, Chehalis Hegner

British drama
Based on the novel by Catherine Cookson, “The Black Candle” from 1991 stars Cathy Sandford, Nathaniel Parker, James Gaddas, Denholm Elliott, and Sian Phillips. This isn’t a slicked up British upper class drama like “Downton Abbey” — rather, it’s the story of a man with black, uncontrolled anger episodes (Nathaniel Parker) and how he affects those around him. The film focuses on two sets of brothers in 1880s Yorkshire: the upper class but impoverished Lionel (Parker) and Douglas Filmore (Robert Hines) and the lower class Skinner brothers, Joe (Gaddas) and Fred (Bob Smeaton). When the brutal Lionel gets Lily Whitmore (Cathy Sandford) pregnant, Joe Skinner marries her to give the child a name. Lionel is out to marry Victoria Mordaunt (Tara Fitzgerald), a guileless young woman whose aunt, Bridget (Samantha Bond) is a successful businesswoman. Joe’s brother knows the truth about the baby and tries to blackmail Lionel; he pays with his life, and Joe is accused. Joe worked for Bridget, and she doesn’t believe he’s capable of murder. She wants to know the truth. This is kind of a “what goes around comes around” type story, with Parker playing a vicious man with a dreadful temper who comes up against his sculptor brother, his father, and the determined Bridget, even as he victimizes his wife and romances a woman 30 years his senior (Sian Phillips). The script could have been better – this is one story that might have benefited from being done in two parts if not more. We don’t get much buildup to some of the events; they happen rather suddenly. Needless to say, the acting across the line is terrific. I thought Parker had a bad temper on “Inspector Lynley” – as Lynley he comes off mild-mannered compared to his performance in this. He’s incredibly young here, too, and very handsome.
