MGM using clear cases for older titles?
I just received The Night of the Hunter from Columbia House and I was surprised to see that it was in a clear case. I don't remember reading anything about MGM starting to use these but I must say it looks interesting. I kind of like them like the Work of Director Series, just kind of surprised to see Night of the Hunter in one. Anyone else encountered this?

I have not seen this however I love these cases....if they are the same design that Adaptation came with... then big, big 
....
The majority of my European dvds come that way (this is indeed the standard in Europe) and i love how you could see additional art on the back side of the cover. Excellent...I hope this becomes a trend.
Pro-B
ps
With this said NOI came with a white/clear case from Pam Pictures....top notch design.

I have Night of the Hunter, and it is in a black case. The only MGM disc that I have that is in a clear case is the R3 Bring me the Head of Alredo Garcia. Odd that they are using clear cases now...

about 99% of my Euro dvds (I have uqite a few French and Italian discs) have a beautiful inside-artwork.
