Like Sunrise Silents, Grapevine Video specialises in quality
restorations of films that would otherwise be heartlessly neglected.
Unlike Sunrise however, Jack Hardy at Grapevine extends his enthusiasms
to working on obscure sound films too.
Their home page reads thus: 'Our Mission is to locate, restore and
transfer films to DVD for the viewing pleasure of classic film fans
everywhere'.
This highly commendable approach is visable in their releases, which,
like Sunrise Silents, include some sort of an 'extra',
usually a related short film.
As well as releasing a regular 3 films minimum per month (a target that
is often pleasingly exceeded), Grapevine offers more information on the
era itself,
helping the stars and the directors to stay in the public imagination
that bit longer.
