Summary: Still classic after all these years
Comment: It is odd to be asked to review something which is sold because it is a legitimate classic. These people were stars then because of obvious talent and skill, and the years haven't changed that. I got these for my spouse because she like to show them to her 90 year old mother, but they rather obviously both enjoyed them as did I. Actors in that period didn't have technology to back them up and had to do it all themselves, and it shows.

Summary: Ginger and Fred Paint The Screen
Comment: This is one supurb movie box set-every component of this package is tremendous. The movies are not only pure nostalgia but stand up as pure entertainment in any age. Crisp and vivid reproductions bring to life Fred and Ginger along with all of the beautiful art decho and white backdrops. The extras are outstanding and include a music cd and movie release packagings exactly replicated of the era. I'm a newer buff of older movies and music, having really grown up in the 70's. What I now know is that it just doesn't get any better than this! This is one of those packages I know I'll go back to for almost any reason in any season-simply some of the best stuff both musically and cinematically. Don't hesitate on this one at all.

Summary: "Let's Face the Music and Dance"
Comment: Having seen these wonderful films on the big screen in repertory theaters in the '70s, I was delighted to be able to acquire them on videotape in the '80s. After 20 years of watching those acceptable transfers, what a thrill it is at last to be able to see them magnificently restored in this set. In just 2 or 3 years, this box has become far more affordable as well, so I paid about one-third of its original retail price. Imagine, 10 restored gems plus welcome extras for less than $5 per DVD!
