Historically Important Dvd Preserves A Great Deal - bwod
Hollywood started at the turn of the 20th century when the modern film industry in America was in its infancy. With the introduction of sound, to the movies, a plethora of movies were captured on nitrate film, which wasn't stable. So much was lost over time, that "Hidden Hollywood" provides reclaimed footage from the vaults and cutting room floors. See the greatest talents of the period around World War 2 (1940), in clips you've never seen before. It's very entertaining, especially for people who like the older movies (especially musicals). I give it one firm thumb up.
