5.0 out of 5 stars Superb quality and great value, January 31, 2004
By John Williams (Old Coulsdon, Surrey United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Wasn't to sure what to expect quality wise but on viewing was absolutely delighted.
The DVD features four silent westerns (all classics) with excellent picture quality and suitable accompanying music with orchestra.
Tumbleweeds is the 1939 reissue and has W S HART speaking of his love of the west.
Battle of Elderbush Gulch is an exciting story by D W Griffith.
Heart of Texas Ryan stars Tom Mix.
Two versions of the title film are included.
All the films have short intros, history and bios.

If you love silent films grab it while you can !

3.0 out of 5 stars One complaint about this DVD..., February 8, 2008
Overall, this is a great DVD. My only compaint is that there is no option to "play all" features. Also, there is a prologue before each feature that you can't bypass. It is very informational; however, I bought this as a background video for a western party and wanted to have it play through all 4 movies. You can't do this the way it comes. You have to select each feature individually and fast forward through the prologues.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Value, March 8, 2007
Of course, everyone (?) knows the reputation of the Great Train Robbery. But the rest of the package contains some gems. Surprising DW Griffith Western, in "Battle...," in the sense that the cavalry does NOT arrive in the nick of time for most of the townspeople, though the stars are saved. The Tom Mix feature is really funny, showing a character who is quite anti-heroic, by Classic Western standards. But the real gem is William S. Hart's Tumbleweeds, which stages an incredible Oklahoma land run, and a stunning ride by 55-year-old Hart.
