John Waynes Classic Monogram Westerns Get a Makeover at Movies Unlimited

Sunday, February 3rd, 2013


Philadelphia, PA (PRWEB) October 30, 2012

The films starring Wayne were made by Lone Star Productions and released in theaters by Monogram Pictures from 1933 through 1935. Although all of the films have been available on DVD from many different sources because they have fallen into the public domain (aka PD), these westerns are now available in newly copyrighted, digitally mastered and restored fine quality DVDs transferred from the original 35MM nitrate negative material. Each movie in the series is presented with original music themes added by noted musician Billy Barber, who also wrote The Oak Ridge Boys hit Little Things and Ray Charles Love is Worth the Pain. Billy supervised the weaving of the new themes throughout the upgraded soundtracks.

This group of Monogram westerns are notable because they present The Duke in his formative years when he was perfecting his famous walk, heroic persona, trademark speech pattern and acting style. The films also showcase frequent sidekick George Gabby Hayes and famous stunt expert Yakima Cannutt, who usually plays one of the bad guys. Wayne and Canutt developed a number of stunts which eventually became part of every western movie.

The movie plots are interesting and sometimes complicated, but always end up with the same basic messages: The good guy wins out in the end, gets the girl, and vanquishes the bad guys. From time to time, Wayne seems to be the bad guy, but turns out to be an undercover agent, or a look-alike. At the time these films were made, there were no formal ratings — all films that could be theatrically distributed to the general public, and these were no exceptions, were the equivalent of what would today be “G” movies. Each title runs about 60 minutes and sells for $ 14.99. The list of restored titles includes:

Sagebrush Trail (1933): The Duke skips prison after being wrongly imprisoned for murder, then joins a gang of outlaws in hopes to finding the real guilty man.

The DVD has been assembled and produced by Festival Films for home video enthusiasts and Movies Unlimited is proud to release this collection on DVD, with more than two hours of family entertainment, available now for $ 19.99.

Among the highlights here are:

Golf Magic, a 1948 short, centering on the oddities of the green scene like Native-Americans teeing off, toddlers tackling putts, folks in bathing suits on skis going clubbing in the snowy mountains and champion Jack Redmond showing off his array of unusual putters, drivers, wedges, irons and drivers and Jack Montagueconsidered one of the best of the 1930simpressing with amazing trick shots.

Rough But Hopeful, a 1946 rarity with appearances by Bing Crosby, Bob Hope, Jack Benny, Randolph Scott, William Bendix, Jack Carson, Johnny Weissmuller, Don Ameche, Jack Oakie, Broderick Crawford, Mickey Rooney and celebrity archivist Ken Murray.

Golfing with Bing and Bob, with the duo on the road to their favorite golf outings from the 1930s-1950s; 1943s Dont Hook Now, shot at Rancho Santa Fe on occasion of Bing Crosbys sixth annual pro-am tournament, with cameos from Sam Snead, Ben Hogan, Jimmy Hines and Byron Nelson.

Faith, Hope and Hogan, presents a 1952 installment of The Christophers, an inspirational TV show, featuring Hope and Crosby, Ben Hogan and Phil Harris.

Golf Mania! also includes bonus footage: 1922s Golf (a silent film with a musical score) in which funnyman Larry Semon (the Scarecrow in 1925s The Wizard of Oz), Oliver Hardy and The Three Stooges regular Vernon Dent encounter golf hijinks; and the classic The Golf Specialist (1930), with W.C. Fields as a hotel guest who tries to teach the flirtatious house detectives wife how to excel at the sport.

With such a diverse scorecard of rare, golf-flavored entertainment, Golf Mania! is a surefire hole-in-one for DVD collectors and putting enthusiasts. Golf Mania! has been released by Festival Films, in conjunction with Movies Unlimited.
