Warner Bros executive George Feltenstein takes us through the Spring 2022 releases from the Warner Archive. 

We kick  off the discussion with the March Blu-ray release of “Captains of the Clouds” (1941) starring James Cagney, Brenda Marshall, Dennis Morgan, and directed by Michael Curtiz.   Beautifully restored in Technicolor, this film has never looked so good. Next George details the David O. Selznick version of “A Star is Born” (1937) starring Janet Gaynor and Fredric March, and directed by William A. Wellman.  This film has been in desperate need of restoration and this new blu-ray returns it to the proper sound and visual it deserves.  And we wrap up the month with a review of the classic TV show "Head of the Class" season 4 on DVD, starring the late Howard Hesseman.  Kevin Costner rules April with Blu-ray releases of two films released in 1985.  The first is "American Flyers," followed by the cult favorite "Fandango." For May, George reviews the Blu-ray of "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" (1941) starring Spencer Tracy in both roles, and co-starring Ingrid Bergman and Lana Turner.  Next is "The Carey Treatment" (1972) starring James Coburn and Jennifer O'Neill.  And also in May is season 5 of the hit TV show "Lucifer," on Blu-ray.  We wrap up the podcast with a discussion on the recent 4K release of "Singin' In the Rain" and what it could mean for future 4K releases of Warner Bros classics.
