5.0 out of 5 stars Good collection Sep 1 2012
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a solid collection of early Cooper movies for his fans. I am not one of them but purchased it because it was the only way to see Peter Ibbetson. Ann Harding was his co-star and that's who I was interested in seeing. It's a shame that she didn't get a co-star equal to her...someone like Leslie Howard. Luis Bunuel, the distinguished Spanish director, claimed that this film was one of the ten greatest surreal films ever made. It's a very interesting film and would have been significantly better but for the wooden performance of Cooper. Cooper was significantly better in the other films.So, if you are a real fan of Cooper, you will likely enjoy most of the films here.

4.0 out of 5 stars Butchery? Jun 19 2006
By Cap
Format:DVD
Gary Cooper was always one of my favourite screen stars, and I plunked down good money to see him in "The General Died at Dawn", "Beau Geste" and "Bengal Lancer". Was I peeved when part way through "The General Died at Dawn" I realized that a very important scene had been cut out or misplaced, one that first brought the two main characters, O'Hara and Judy Perry, together. Early on, O'Hara is told to avoid the train at Pengwa and to make certain he boards the plane instead. Miss Perry bleats to her father that she doesn't want to hurt a man she's never met. In the very next scene, they're all at the train station, including O'Hara! He and Judy meet in her compartment and act as though it's not the first time either. Obviously some nitwit who couldn't care less has misplaced the previous scene where she somehow lures him into taking the train. Who knows what else was cut out or lost from this classic old film. Bugger the lot of them! Don't waste your money. Maybe someday someone else will restore these films to what they should be.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great Films, disrespectful transfers April 9 2006
Format:DVD
I bought this collection because it was the only way to get "Beau Geste" on DVD. Getting "The General Died at Dawn" and "Lives of a Bengal Lancer" was a huge bonus. These are great old movies. However, the digital transfers are mediocre at best. Bengal Lancer has some missing audio blips, streaking and graininess. It is on par with 99 cent videos I have purchased out of discount bins.
But, really, these are discount movies. You are getting 5 films for $25.00, only $5.00 a film... barely the cost of a rental - and all of them worth watching - repeatedly.
