What's New?

Finding Franchot fansite

I've scanned and added more photos to the fansite since 2019 began. You can find those at www.findingfranchot.com and specifically on the following pages:

Portraits/Franchot Alone

Candids

Film Stills and Publicity

Newspaper and Magazine

A new addition to the fansite: I Love Trouble candid

Phantom Lady

The 1944 film noir Phantom Lady was just released on blu-ray. You can read more about the specs here


I'm hoping we will see some Warner Archive releases of other Franchot films (my personal wishlist includes the release of Gentlemen are Born, The Stranger's Return, Straight is the Way, or Between Two Women) later this year, but no word yet.
