Newbie alert!

I couldn't find a review of this set in any of these forums or online. I like the movies but I have never bought a boxed set before. Are the movies in this set different than the ones you would buy individually?

Basically, is it worth it to get the boxed set at a considerable savings from DDD or are the individual editions of better quality so I should buy them separately?

Thanks in advance for any tips.

There's no content difference between the box set and regular releases to my knowledge. Usually, such reissues are just slip-covered together. I have Father Goose and Operation Petticoat from that set. Neither are particularly spectacular presentations, but still gems among my library.

Father Goose and Indiscreet are two of my favorite Gary Grant Movies. I also like Operation Petticoat but didn't really like That Touch of Mink. I haven't seen Grass is Greener. Considering that the Father Goose and Indiscreet retail for more that what DDD is asking for the five movies I'm going to pick it up. Thanks for the reply.

Yeah, That Touch of Mink is certainly a product of the times ... Pillow Talk is more endearing to me.

I like Cary Grant in I Was A Female War Bride.

Texasgingersnap,

I haven't seen that one. I'll have to check it out.
