Stanwyck - The Signature Collection (Annie Oakley / East Side, West Side
/ My Reputation / Executive Suite / Jeopardy / To Please a Lady)Warner Bros. has been releasing these amazing 5 disc 'Signature Collections' for some time and they are exemplary - the Film Noir collection is one of my all-time favorite DVDs, as are the Bette Davis and Joan Crawford box sets. They also offer collections I haven't seen devoted to Burt Lancaster, Errol Flynn, Alfred Hitchcock, Cary Grant, Judy Garland, Bogie and Bacall, Basil Rathbone, Robert Mitchum, John Wayne, Elizabeth Taylor - and they all look like winners, packed with definitive films from the silver screen's greatest legends. This Barbara Stanwyck Signature Collection is another DVD masterpiece. Not only are these all excellent motion pictures but the shorts that come with these discs are a joy to behold themselves, they come from the same year as the films to give you a true retro movie going experience. Boy, have times changed - these quaint live action shorts and stylized Tex Avery Warner Bros. cartoons will rocket you right back to long gone times. What a great idea to include these ultra-rare gems. I like the vintage movie posters that comprise the DVD covers, a sweet touch. This is a nicely designed but not overly fancy package sure to offer some film classics you've never seen or not seen in a while. Most if not all of these black & white films are new to DVD, new to home video even. Executive
Suite (1954) This disc includes an amazing audio commentary by Oliver Stone who explains not just the cinematic attributes of this unusual film but its cultural meaning as well. Special

Reputation (1946) Special
