The Littlest Rebel [HD]



Which DVD's? ( Volume 4 Coming 7-25-06)
This set will contain "The Little Colonel", "The Littliest Rebel" and "Dimples."

Volume 4 will be released on July 25, 2006. It will include:

Captain January
Just Around The Corner
Susannah of the Mounties

Sound quality not what it should be
I own all 3 of these Shirley Temple sets that have been released so far. The sound quality seems to be going downhill...

All 3 of the DVDs in Volume One were okay. I was very pleased with that set. In Volume Two, I noticed that the sound quality in Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm was not that great (quiet voices and comparatively loud music). In this last volume, the sound was questionable in The Littlest Rebel... but it was atrocious in Dimples. It sounded as if all the actors were talking into pillows. I have watched these films on VHS and the sound is fine... perhaps something went wrong when they were put onto DVD.

I will say, however, that I absolutely love The Littlest Rebel and The Little Colonel. They're probably my favourite Shirley Temple movies, so to find them both in Volume Three was great. I was worried about The Little Colonel, though. The last scene was originally shot in Technicolor; however, in Fox's last VHS release of the movie...

Not Only The Greatest Child Actress. But The Greatest Actress Ever.
I just finished watching this volume 3 collection and want to wholeheartedly endorse it.

I had read some reviews that the picture quality and sound was not so good and was doubtful if I should buy it, but bought it all the same as I had enjoyed the other two volumes so much.

Well I was not disappointed at all. The sound quality was very good. Try listning to it on the stereo option on the on-screen menu.

These are three of her very best films and you will laugh and enjoy them so much.

My wife never ever heard of Shirley Temple till 2006 when I introduced her to Shirley's films and now we both are big fans and look forward to these re-releases.

'The Little Colonel' and 'The littlest Rebel' both have the excellent Bill 'Bojangles' Robinson acting and dancing in fine form with Shirley.

Bill worked out the dance routines in all these three pictures but only stars in the above mentioned two.

No one grabs my...
