Title: Great set. But Universal should recall "Family Plot"
Review: As most of have already commented, this is a stellar set with mostly excellent transfers of classic films. I'll echo the comment that the "Family Plot" transfer is a disaster. While not Hitchcock's greatest film, this is a sparkling comedy thriller that deserves a better fate. I was looking forward to it for personal reasons, having attended the premiere of this film as a kid at the LA Filmex event and a dinner honoring Hitchcock afterwards at the Century Plaza Hotel. Aside from the poor "Marnie" transfer, which some reviewers commented may be due to source materials, the rest of the set is amazing and well worth the money. Some of the transfers are so good ("Topaz" for example) it's almost like seeing these films for the first time.
Is the review positive or negative?
