This is what now stands at 5905 Sunset Blvd (September 2025)

This automotive eye candy was once a 1935 Ford Phaeton. But then Frank Kurtis got his hands on it and restyled it into a delivery truck for the So Cal Plating Co. The building behind the Phaeton stood at 5905 Sunset Blvd, which was the headquarters of Randall & Sons insurance.

@TheExtrastv @WarnerArchive @WBHomeEnt @tcm My fingers are crossed for you!
Not to add even more to your plate...but with the upcoming release of Arrowsmith, it would be awesome if you could work out an interview with someone from the Goldwyn family/estate to discuss its restoration & other films in their library.

@FilmTweeter80 @WarnerArchive @WBHomeEnt @tcm Plans....yes. However I'm maxed out with episodes. Hopefully I can get my head above water in April.

NEW AUDIO Podcast - Warner Archive April Announcement: 7 Classic Films, a 4K Documentary, PLUS An Update on Last Summer
Links to all podcast providers: theextras.buzzsprout.com/share
Video podcast TBD
We break down Warner Archive’s packed April slate and explain what makes each Blu-ray worth owning, from new 4K scans and rescued film elements to the shorts, cartoons, and radio extras that turn discs into time capsules. We also tease a hard-won restoration update on Last Summer and why preservation work often takes years longer than anyone wants.
There are no pre-order links yet, but we will post those on our Facebook page and in our different social media sites when those become available.

NIGHT WORLD (1932)
• Brand New HD Master - From a 2K Scan of the 35mm Finegrain!
• NEW Audio Commentary by Film Historian Jeremy Arnold
• NEW Audio Commentary by Novelist/ Critic Tim Lucas and Jazz Broadcaster/ Film Expert Joe Busam
• Optional English Subtitles
B & W/ 58 Minutes/ 1.37:1/ Not Rated
Taking a cue from Grand Hotel, this star-studded 1932 gem is set within the walls of a swanky nightclub owned by affable racketeer Happy MacDonald (Boris Karloff). In the course of a single evening, MacDonald is double-crossed by his faithless wife (Dorothy Revier) and a choreographer (Russell Hopton); the philosophical doorman (Clarence Muse) fears for his beloved wife’s life; an alcoholic socialite (Lew Ayres), the son of an acquitted murderess (Hedda Hopper), finds love in the arms of a hard-boiled chorus girl (Mae Clarke); and a beat cop (Robert Emmett O’Connor) bursts in to foil a pair of trigger-happy mobsters. Throw in a full-blown musical number by Busby Berkeley—overhead camera angles and all—and you get a true treasure trove for pre-Code movie lovers!

Today, in Iran, in the middle of a war, the regime executed a 19-year-old national wrestling champion for the crime of joining January protests. 💔
After signaling to the world, including President @realDonaldTrump, that they would halt executions of protesters, the regime has done the exact opposite.
Three young protesters, Saleh Mohammadi, Mehdi Ghasemi, and Saeed Davoudi, were hanged in Qom after a sham trial.
Reports indicate torture. Forced confessions. No access to chosen lawyers. Closed-door proceedings. No right to appeal.
I call on @GlobalAthleteHQ to stand with Iranian athletes who are being silenced, imprisoned, and executed simply for raising their voices.
This is not just about sports. This is about human dignity.

@Ready4MyCU @ProustBahulu Will be happy to share my thoughts when I get there. Stay tuned...
English

@FilmTweeter80 @ProustBahulu That makes sense. I purchased the individual blus of the first & second seasons when they were released and they look fantastic. They discontinued releasing the subsequent season after that. I would love to hear your thoughts on react when you get to them!

@Ready4MyCU @ProustBahulu I actually have both but am watching the Blu ray's which I picked up not long ago. I'm still on Season 1...which I hear was restored prior to the AI restorations done on episodes after Season 2. So...we will see. So far the episodes took great to me!
English

@FilmTweeter80 @ProustBahulu Wow! Are you watching them on DVD or the blu-ray edition? I don’t have the blu, but I heard fans have been aghast at AI upscaling that caused a waxy or artificial look in some scenes.
English

@Ready4MyCU @ProustBahulu Sure is! The show has always been a part of my life but this is the first time I'm watching through the series chronologically in over a decade!
English

@FilmTweeter80 @ProustBahulu The show is truly timeless!
