Hollywood Revue of 1929 (MOD)

Price: $19.95

Studio: MGM
Screen Aspect: 4 X 3 FULL FRAME
Run Time: 118 minutes
Genre: Musical

Synopsis:

Everybody sing. Everybody dance. Or, failing that, everybody step in
place during the famed Singin’ in the Rain finale. A torrent of talent
takes the screen in the first all-star Talkie Era showcase of
heretofore silent-screen players. Much of The Hollywood Revue of 1929
was filmed in the graveyard shift so that the stars’ daytime shooting
schedules would not be disrupted. Fans in Los Angeles and New York
City were treated to movie marquees that included live showgirls. Once
in the theater, they were treated to the on-screen delights of Joan
Crawford singing and Charlestoning, Laurel and Hardy clowning, Norma
Shearer and John Gilbert spoofing the Bard (in color!), Buster Keaton
stonefacing and much more in a historic menagerie of fun.

Doesn't MOD = Movie on Demand? It's not available on DVD?
I'm not about to spend $20 to watch a movie on my netbook.

MOD = Manufactured on Demand. Warner Archives items are available on
DVD-R or via download. The standard DVD-R price is $19.95, the download
is (I think) $14.95.

Currently, this is on sale for $13.95, 30% off, with free shipping. No
idea how long this will be in effect.
