I love Cary Grant. I loved every movie I ever watched that he acted in, and these movies are no exception. Yes, some are better than others, but he is a superb actor and a pleasure to watch any day. However, the quality of the disks is shockingly appalling. Not only are the movies grainy, but they do not allow for wide screen expansion. Having a wide screen TV, most of my screen was black filler. This, of course, forced me to zoom the entire image, making it even grainier (pixellated).
So, the moves are OK, but the quality of the recording is awful! Your choice.

How can you NOT adore Cary Grant. The best of the collection was Operation Petticoat. That Touch of Mink is dated in terms of social mores but the dialogue if funny.

You gotta be a fan of Cary Grant to like these. They are fairly typical of the romantic comedies of the time. These movies are kind of like cotton candy -- sweet and enjoyable, but not much substance.
Father Goose is, in my opinion, the better of the two, because is allows Cary Grant to stretch a bit, while still remaining true to the genre. His gruff, unshaven character is a departure from the suave, sophisticated of That Touch of Mink.
If you're a fan of these type of movies, it's a worthy addition.

if you're a cary grant fan, this is your best deal
All the dvd's have great quality and sound and for the price, they can't be beat. Cary Grant is in his true, classic form in all five of these movies. Read more

One is enough
I give this collection 4 stars only because it came with another DVD instead of just Father Goose. This is my all time favorite Cary Grant movie and I would have preferred that it... Read more

Clarification of previous review
Note that in my previous review, in which I commented on the dreadful DVD transfer, I was only referring to the "That Touch of Mink" DVD. Read more

Lousy DVD transfer
Nice, light-hearted comedy but the quality of the DVD transfer is dreadful. This is the second Artisan disc I have bought, the other being The Quiet Man, and definitely the last. Read more

Father Goose is Cary Grant at his best!
Father Goose is a lot of fun and is arguably Cary Grant's funniest and finest film.
Yes, he was great in Charade, North by Northwest, Notorious, etc -- but here his honed skills... Read more
