It's been deferred for over a year now. Such a pity, and very short-sighted, if rights issues prevent it from being reissued or rebroadcast. Already two generations have missed out on it - and many more probably will.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17462849.post-1142992952320742932006-03-21T18:02:00.000-08:002006-03-21T18:02:00.000-08:00Paul, here is what I found from DVD Times:The Bust...Paul, here is what I found from DVD Times:<BR/><BR/>The Buster Keaton Chronicles, released February 2006 -includes:<BR/>Our Hospitality (1923) – 70 minutes<BR/>Directed by former Keystone actor Jack Blystone and Keaton himself, the film centres on respective heads of the Canfield and McKay families as they try to settle an old score, but by killing each other, they merely perpetuate the old feud.Edna's Placehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02930822209513131426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17462849.post-1142989047319756022006-03-21T16:57:00.000-08:002006-03-21T16:57:00.000-08:00This is great news!

I have heard rumors that a new Buster Keaton DVD set from the UK may include the unequaled Thames Silents versions of "Our Hospitality" and "The General".

So far, it appears to be just the UK, but I will keep an eye out of the US/Canada version.
