This may be the future of DVD sales. I'm a huge fan of movies made during the time period, as Michael Savage calls it: "when America was great, when the chrome was thick and the women were straight." While Democratic presidents predominated in the White House during the 1930s-early 1960s, the social values of that time were far more conservative than films today and this was reflected in the films of that time. I've already received my copy of the underrated comedy/patriotic WWII spy adventure "Once Upon A Honeymoon" starring great Republican stars Ginger Rogers and Cary Grant and directed by Republican/Catholic director Leo McCarey. I also need to order copies of "The Big Circus" with Victor Mature and Rhonda Fleming and the film all lefties hate, filmnoir anti-Communist classic "I Was A Communist for the FBI."

Forgot to include the direct link-

Titles they say will be coming include
“Bright Leaf”-a highly politically incorrect historical epic about the North Carolina tobacco industry featuring conservative Republican actor Gary Cooper as self-made magnate and Patricia Neal and Lauren Bacall as the women in his life.
“How Sweet It Is”-a hilarious 1960s comedy that makes fun of flower children and their naivete. I love the scene where James Garner advises his hippy son who thinks “love will protect him” all over the world and Garner says “I’ve seen the world, son. Take a gun.”

Warner Brothers announced this about a month ago. I have already searched their archive library and have ordered a few. At $ 19.99 for a DVD though, it had better be on my want list.
I hope they keep adding, because my classic movie want list is huge. TCM has been a big help, in scratching off some titles, but there is still many never released I am looking for.
