RKO Lost and Found at The Film Forum Feb. 23 - March 1











The following description is taken from RKO Lost And Found at The Film Forum:
"In a world of film, tape, DVD, cable, video on demand, pay-per-view, streaming, etc. etc., you pretty much have access to whatever unknown classic you care to dig up. Or do you? Five of the six RKO Radio pictures in this series — all produced by the legendary Merian C. Cooper (King Kong progenitor, Cinerama pioneer, etc.) — have been unseen in any medium since 1959, and, one, A Man to Remember, not since its 1938 premiere. Now, after diligent legal work and a thorough search of the world's archives by Turner Classic Movies, these newly-unearthed 30s classics — four of them made in the Pre-Code era — can finally be seen again on theater screens, in new 35mm prints, yet."

"SPECIAL THANKS TO DENNIS MILLAY OF TURNER CLASSIC MOVIES."
