Universal Gets Into the Act!

I've heaped praise on Warner Bros. for months here because of their Warner Archive series and now Universal is jumping on the bandwagon with their Universal Vault series. There are a number of good Universal Pictures that are unavailable on DVD, until now.

"The Last Remake of Beau Geste" starring Marty Feldman (pictured above) is one of these. Universal has made an arrangement with Amazon to produce these on DVD-R. Some quibble about DVD-R vs. regular DVD, but I'd rather have DVD-R than nothing at all.

"Last Remake" is a very funny film in the vein of Mel Brooks at his best. Highly recommended.
