A new DVD release featuring five breathtaking films that preserve the romance, grandeur and allure of windjammers sailing open waters, exquisitely photographed in the style of the time, featuring The Yankee Clipper (1927) accompanied by renowned organist Dennis James, in his solo DVD premiere. Also features Around the Horn, The Square Rigger, Ship Ahoy, Down to the Sea in Ships, and an audio remembrance by Frank “Junior” Coghlan.
This five-disc DVD collection includes eleven of the delightful modern-dress comedies, westerns, satires, dream-fantasies and romances which made Douglas Fair banks a tremendously popular hero. In addition to Fairbanks’s unique talent, these ebullient films showcase his gifted collaborators, including scenario writer Anita Loos and directors Allan Dwan and Victor Fleming, and John Emmerson.
Abel Gance’s J’Accuse is considered one of the most technically advanced films of the era and the first major pacifist film. This new restoration carried out in partnership with Lobster Films Studios culls materials from several collections for assembling the most complete edition of the original 1919 edit of the film. Features a new symphonic score by Robert Israel.
