DVD Reviews of Goodbye, My Fancy
DVD Review: If Joan could speak from beyond the grave she would say: stop overcharging my audience for my movies
Summary: 3 Stars
This is one 3 forgettable pictures (the other 2 being "Female on the Beach" and "This Woman is Dangerous") that Joan made during the '50s that have been somewhat hard-to-find. Besides a laser disc more than 10 years ago, "Goodbye, My Fancy" has never been released on any other format. This film reminds me of a cross between "Autumn Leaves" and "The Story of Esther Costello".
In this film, Joan plays a college alumni who returns to her alma matter to receive an honorary degree. There's also a subplot concerning Agatha (Joan's character) and an old flame. However, the plot moves around a lot and doesn't have a centric theme. It's almost like one of those pictures that just goes on for a bit before ending. It wasn't a bad movie though.
Here is a list of all of the recent Joan Crawford DVDs that Warner Bros. put out this year (note: none of these films have been remastered and are not special issues and everything is on DVD-minus-R):
Spring Fever (silent) (1927)
Dance Fools Dance (1931)
Laughing Sinners (1931)
Possessed (1931)
Chained (1934)
Forsaking All Others (1934)
Love on the Run (1936)
Mannequin (1938)
The Shining Hour (1938)
The Ice Follies of 1939 (1939)
When Ladies Meet (1941)
Hollywood Canteen (titled: Warner Bros. and the Homefront Collection) (1944)
It's a Great Feeling (titled: TCM Spotlight: Doris Day Collection) (1949)
Goodbye, My Fancy (1950)
This Woman is Dangerous (1952)
Go here to see a list of links for each of these films, on the studio's officail site (which is much less than what these sellers are offering them for).
Although I think everyone should watch all of Joan's movies because they all have a historical importance (not to mention a large entertainment value), I have to say that I find the price of this film absolutely obscene. How can anyone justify charging such a large sum for such an old film like this that is often shown on television (TCM)? I am 100% certain that Joan would not be happy about this. She would never approve of her fans being overcharged, especially during a recession. However out of respect for Joan, I will not take off a single star from my rating of this movie.
