 | Oldie's, but good one's May 7, 2010 |
| These Roy Roger films may be a little old and scratched from their film reels, but the content is refreshing, considering what the Movie industry is makeing for the most part today. | | | | Roy Rogers - 20 Movie Pack Apr 3, 2010 |
| I really enjoyed watching these old westerns. Roy Rogers and the gang are great classic family fun. These are the kind of shows and movies that I wish were around today. Mill Creek Entertainment did a good job of bringing these films to DVD and the quality of the discs are very good. | | |  | Classic! Feb 2, 2010 |
| Grandma loves Roy Rogers, but had no clue how to find these movies at all let alone on DVD. She was shocked & amazed when her grandson came through for her =). | | |  | UNCUT YET MURKY!!! Dec 17, 2009 |
This is a complete uncut version of a great Roy Rogers film, in which all of the REPUBLIC FILMS cowboy stars join Roy to help Dale and Gabby save Dale's ranch for orphaned boys. They're all here: Sunset Carson, Wild Bill Elliot, Alan Rocky Lane, Bob Livingston, and Don Red Barry. And the songs are all here too! Lots of footage had been cut to fill tv time slots in the 1950's, and the first stuff to go was always the songs in order to keep the plot as intact as possible.
However...although the good news is that this is possibly the best version available, it's still in need of some serious restoration. The print, while free of awful splice cuts, is dark and murky and could use a good digital cleaning. The night scenes are so bad you can hardly make out who the characters are. Some scenes appear to shift from washed out to somewhat clearer. The audio could be spruced up too.
But still, if you want an uncut print with all of the songs intact, then I can still recommend the purchase of this dvd from ALPHA. I just hope that some company out there (ROAN? They've put out excellent Roy Rogers restorations in the past) can clean this film up and release it properly. After all, this was one of REPUBLIC's premier features, and one that all fans of Roy, Gabby and Dale would love to add to their collections.
P.S.....Just to see what I was missing I pulled out my Platinum/Echo Bridge ROY ROGERS VOL.1 which has 5 movies on one single sided disc. BELLS OF ROSARITA is listed here as the 54 min. cut for tv version. Boy was I surprised!!! It's the complete 68 min. version and unlike ALPHA's dark and murky copy this one is super clear, sharp image with great background depth!!! This is the one to get, PERIOD!!!
However, on the same dvd, HANDS ACROSS THE BORDER is listed at it's full running time of 72 min. and is a badly cut 52 min. version. Go figure. | | |  | Poor video quality Aug 29, 2009 |
| Really disappointed in the quality. Not worth the effort to put it in the player. | | | Write your own review about Bells of Rosarita
