Irene Dunne Romance Classics (1941)

MY TWO CENTS WORTH SAYS WOW!!

For the first cent, MARENGO FILMS' remastered version (forget the earlier reviews) of PENNY SERENADE is now the best copy of this title to be found on the DVD market. And trust me, I've been through them all. The muddy picture and hissing sound of all other competing versions have been eliminated by the careful remastering of MARENGO. Finally, you can now see this wonderful movie with a beautiful picture and clear, crisp sound.

As for the second cent, the remastering of HIS GIRL FRIDAY is also meticulously accomplished. The picture is clean and sharp and the sound is loud and clear. And how can you argue with the price? You get two bonafide classics in wonderful transfers for the same price that you generally pay for just one DVD title.

Bravo to MARENGO for two jobs well done!! February 28, 2007

Irene Dunne Is Great!

Irene Dunne is so underrated, she is a great comic and dramatic actress. I have watched every movie I can get my hands on.
Just the last few years it seems more and more people are discovering Irene Dunne. Love Affair (original Dunne) great! Penny serenade, fantastic! March 15, 2006

The Best Copy Around

I puchased the Marengo release of Penny Serenade, and boy was I thrilled. This has to be the cleanest copy of this movie I have ever seen. Granted it is not perfect but it is far superior to any other releases I have viewed. For me "His Girl Friday" was just a welcome extra......Thanks, Anita February 10, 2006

Good Movies But Especially My Girl Friday.

I really like Cary Grant and this DVD has two of his movies, His Girl Friday and Penny Serenade. They are both good movies but personally I think His Girl Friday is the better of the two and in this one Cary Grant stars as a newspaper editor who does eveything he can to keep his star reporter (Rosalind Russell) who also happens to be his ex-wife from retirement and getting married to an insurance agent played by Ralph Bellamy. The whole cast is wonderful but especially Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell. Penny Seranade is good and about a couple with marital problems who want to adopt a child and his costar is Irene Dunne who starred in two screwball comedies with him, My Favorite Wife and The Awful Truth but truth to be told I preferred their screwball comedies to their dramatic movie. Penny Serenade is good but it's a little too melodramatic for my taste! October 7, 2005

STOP THE PRESS - NEW VERSION NOW AVAILABLE

After four years of searching we want our customers to know that we found a great print of Penny Serenade and re-mastered this DVD.

We believe our two films are now the BEST on the market and are a great buy.

Thank you for your business... Marengo Films.
