Can I just say that I hate Leonard Maltin btw?
Ahem.
Not quite the bringer of chaos that I remembered, HL still raised a chuckle or three. Haven't ventured into the few talkies that are on the set, but will endeavour to peruse them next! Especially since I'm pretty sure I've never heard him speak. The lack of a decent documentary is another let down, a few puff pieces here and there no doubt kept the estate happy, but not me . Not that I want an Arbuckle style expose haha. The prints certainly look decent, as I'm led to believe that HL was one of the first to start his own archive (negatives etc) so at least the source material was there to remaster.....
