Simple, Easy, Fast, Fun	April 19, 2021
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from SADIEVILLE, KY United States

I 1st saw this documentary while stationed in Germany on late night ZDF. For years I have been searching for a copy of it. Lo and Behold! Movie Detective had it at a great price. Ordering was simple, payment was easy, Shipping was fast and the whole family has had fun watching and learning about early Hollywood. The discs were exactly as advertised and ran perfectly in our DVD system.
Thanks Movie Detective!

Great Transfer Of An Amazing Series	May 13, 2020
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Whitehorse, YT Canada

I didn't see this programme when it first aired, I only discovered it thanks to a comment on a movie podcast. Thames did a great job producing this documentary. It should be required viewing for anyone interested in making films. The silent era is ignored far too often. This programme not only showcases some of the great work from Hollywood back then but gives a voice to those involved. If you have any interest in silents then this a must-watch.

Hollywood: A Celebration of American Silent Film	January 28, 2020
Reviewer: Ron from Los Angeles, CA United States

For at least 15 years I've kept searching for a re-issue of this superb documentary on DVD.

By chance I learned about the availability through MovieDetectives and took a chance.
Let me assure you the transfer is excellent. I own a 65 inch top-of the-line Samsung 4K and an Oppo 4K disc player and I was not disappointed at the image and sound.

I highly recommend a purchase; the series remains as fascinating as when I first saw it more than 25 years ago late at night on a Los Angeles local station.

Overall very pleased	August 20, 2019
Reviewer: Barry Stovel from Victoria, BC Canada

Was unimpressed with the packing: 2 DVDs each to a rather tight plastic sleeve -one could put fingerprints on the DVD while extracting it. There is a label on each side of the plastic sleeve, i.e., "Hollywood Disc 1" etc. The DVDs themselves are totally bare.
Now for the positive: I'm very pleased with the LD transfer to DVDs. I wasn't expecting remastered DVD quality, but the
MovieDetective DVDs are very good. Highly recommended!
