| Good collection of classic Sinatra films at an ultra-low price |
"The Man with the Golden Arm" (1955) 1 hour 59 minutes, B&W
Notable for Sinatra's performance as a junkie going through cold turkey withdrawal from heroin.
"Till the Clouds Roll By" (1946) 2 hours 17 minutes, Color
Almost every big name of the day puts in an appearance in this Jerome Kern biopic. Precious little Sinatra, but he does get the honor of performing the big finale number.
"Suddenly" (1954) 1 hour 15 minutes, B&W
Sinatra as a would be assassin waiting for the Presidential motorcade. After 1963 Sinatra had this film noir withdrawn from circulation. (Because the copyright wasn't renewed this one fell into the public domain and a lot of bad copies are floating around.)
The inclusion of "The House I Live In" (1945) as a ten minute bonus feature more than justifies the price of the entire collection.
The DVD package says, "Carefully Re-Mastered for Best Possible Picture Quality." While these prints certainly aren't HD, they probably look as well as they did when they were shown on TV. The black & white films are plagued by dust and artifacts.
Despite the definition flaws, I can't bring myself to deduct any stars from the rating. With this much classic Sinatra for such an ultra low price, you can't say St. Clair doesn't provide plenty of bang for the buck.
If you like movies from Sinatra's prime, you'll enjoy this 5 hour 41 minute collection.
Recommended.
