Poor Picture Quality, Jan 12 2011
By S. Green - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Lombard/Powell Comedy Coll. (DVD)
The picture on all four movies is washed out, no contrast, no sharpness. Sometimes the picture is slightly blurry. The color, on the two movies that are in color, is faded. The movies are obviously poorly done copies. I have seen much better picture quality produced in the silent movie era.
The company putting this junk out is pop-flix, it is a division of Allegro Corporation. I advise to steer clear of their products.

Good movies but......., Jun 14 2010

This review is from: Lombard/Powell Comedy Coll. (DVD)
Disc 2 contains "Life with Father" & "My Man Godfrey" both
of which are excellent. Unfortunately, Disc 1 does not play
on my DVD player,although it plays on my computer. I'm
told that this is probably because the manufacturer used an
information/data disc instead of a DVD disc to be played on a DVD
player. Amazon is willing to exchange it but for $6.98 it's not
worth the trouble.

Carole Lombard, the ultimate comedienne, Jan 17 2011

When I received this in the mail, it came scratched and the disc didn't read very well so I had to return it. Having said that, the movies included in the collection are all wonderful, especially My Man Godfrey (I'm a longtime fan of this classic). It's a good price for four movies, but it is a shame that both the sound and picture quality are dreadful. Look elsewhere if you want to be able to understand what the actors are saying.
