These notes were submitted to the Fortean Times Message Board when an avalanche of old Hollywood movies started to appear in UK bargain outlets. The Classic Entertainment triple bills were typically available for £1 each on the High Street, even though they were online for four or five quid. It became a challenge to try to track down and document the whole series and comment on the prints used. It was also quite an education in the poverty-row studios fare which usually gets only a passing mention in the history books.
The material from this page has now been inserted into its proper places in the survey of Classic Entertainment Triple Bills on Page One of these Nearly Free DVD pieces.
