Shemp fans who want
THE BANK DICK (1940) available in a
bargain set can buy the "
W. C. Fields Comedy Favorites Collection" on June 4, 2013. All 10 films from the earlier 2 volume "W. C. Fields Comedy Collections" will be repackaged in the new set. The downside is, it's compressed from 10 discs, to
3 discs; not sure if they're going to be double-sided or not. It's available for pre-order from Amazon, MoviesUnlimited, etc.
