Fox Studio Classics: Desk Set coming 5/4
From DVDTimes:
Fox Home Entertainment have announced the Region 1 DVD release of Desk Set on their Fox Studio Classics label for 4th May 2004 with a retail price of $14.98. Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracey star in this romantic comedy that will offer the following features on DVD... • Anamorphic Widescreen • English Stereo • English, Spanish and French Mono • English and Spanish subtitles • Audio Commentary by Merrill and Neva Patterson • Designers Inspired For New Creation By Film "Desk Set" • Theatrical trailer • Cross-promotional trailers • Still gallery I'm glad they reduced the SRP on these. :up: I just wish they'd done it before I bought the first 15. :o Rob |
Yes! Though it may not be the fashion, I think this is my favorite of the Tracy-Hepburn films.
Releasing this title also offers a bit more hope that some later Fox films might sneak into this series, especiallly How to Steal a Million. And Rob, I feel your pain about the re-pricing on the early entries in this series (though I don't think I ever paid more than $12 each for any of the Fox Studio Classics I've bought...it still hurt my cheapskate heart seeing the four-packs at Costco for $23.) |
Looking forward to this - it's great fun, and you have to smile looking at the high-tech computer system. And :up: to Fox for the new pricing!

The info. below has been directly stolen from one of Blade's Costco threads in the "DVD Bargains" forum:
"Fox Studio Classics 4 disc sets (once) $35 NOW $24!! free Sunrise Per Quake1028 there's been an $11 price drop on these sets. This is a great bargain, and I hear you can ebay Sunrise for a pretty good price (though that might drop with all these Costco sales glutting the market)...even still, $6 a title is a great deal for these movie classics, so whatever you get for selling Sunrise (or give it as a gift) is just gravy. These are not in a box, but in one of those plastic forms. Dah-Dee reported different configurations avail., so stock may vary *Gentleman's Agreement/Song of Bernadette/An Affair to Remember/Sunrise *All About Eve/How Green was My Valley/Love is a Many Splendored Thing/Sunrise *Inn of the Sixth Happiness/Anastasia/My Darling Clementine/Sunrise *Oxbow Incident/Mask of Zorro/Titanic/Sunrise" |
The one I ordered from Amazon was:
Gentleman's Agreement / How Green Was My Valley / All About Eve / Sunrise So that's another configuration. It's too bad that Sunrise seems to come in every set, although the eBay/Half option is a good idea to get rid of extra ones (heck, the gift idea is a good idea at that price). What a wonderful price drop! Has anyone seen these other configurations available for order online anywhere? |
