Tailspin Tommy In The Great Air Mystery movie serial DVD

Tommy and his pals Skeeter (Noah Beery Jr.) and young and beautiful Jean Rogers as Betty Lou, fly to Nazil Island (in the Pacific) to help a group of honest business people protect oil reserves from takeover by dishonest ones. They are assisted by an undercover reporter and from a masked mystery pilot called the Eagle. If you like truly entertaining stunt flying, and heroes who know how to smile, this is the serial for you. The no-cgi-in-sight old-fashioned airplanes are fun to watch and the sequence in which an airborne dirigible hooks a plane and pulls it aboard is also impressive. The "Gosh, Betty Lou!"-style dialogue, unquestionably written for kids, gives an authentic, classic feel to the story, which was adapted faithfully from comic strips of the time. Move over, Sky Captain, the real guy has some flying to do here!

The first and still the only commercial DVD available of this serial. Digitally transferred on a Rank/Cintel C-Reality Film Scanner from a superb quality original print. This is not a copy of a video tape, which would look just like a video tape, like you get from so many other sellers on the internet! This is not a product of a DVD recorder! This is a for real, honest, all-digital transfer of film to DVD. Image stabilization, grain reduction and scratch reduction techniques were used. The digital film transfer was enhanced using Digital Vision's DVR-1000 Noise Reducer and Pogle Platinum color-correction software to ensure overall black and white tonality. The film was cleaned prior to being transferred. The soundtrack was restored and noise reduced. The result is the best quality copy of this serial that has ever been made available!
