I have a Laser disc of the Warner Story, and this series eclipses the Laser disc. Now I want to see these other Films from the 30's mentioned in this series. Your POV Mr. Schickel of the Warner's political perspective truly added a clarity to their story often missing in other treatments of this material. "3 Fine Gentlemen" Zanuck punched Micheal Cutiz! Wow. Alternative programming indeed. What a feat of compilation. Bravo. Bravo Mr. Schickel for the 1st episode of this series.

Walking around the Warner lot, I imagine the ghosts of these filmmakers scratching their heads with amusement that the place is still standing!
