Warners Marx Brothers Collection
Posted: Sat Feb 28, 2004 4:31 am
Here's the information on the upcoming Warner Brothers Marx Brothers set. Sadly, despite there being a couple of gems in the set, it's generally regarded that the Warner owned films aren't as good as the Universal owned films. But we are assured that Universal are working on a mega release of their Marx Brothers films as I type this message. I'm looking forward to a decent Duck Soup DVD!
On with the specs!
