Critics’ Choice has a new William Elliott set out that looks pretty promising, with three pictures from 1941. These Columbia B’s, with Elliott teamed with the great Dub Taylor as Cannonball, are pretty terrific.

A large-scale rancher is trying to scoop up all the little ranches in Pecos. His plans run into a snag, Daniel Boone’s grandson (Elliott).
I just watched 2 of Bill Elliot films from the WB set yesterday.More of his films on DVD are always welcome.There is a release of his films in Germany,but sadly no English.
Graham, are these DVD-R’s from Warner Archives? Also, do they have Columbia titles, or are they Astor Pictures, or Gail Films?
Walter,looks like they’re Republic films.7 in total.
Graham, really? I thought they might be Monogram/Allied Artists,
Well, firstly a big thank you to Critics Choice for really going outside the box by releasing 3 of Elliott’s good Columbia series. I hope the set will be region-free and that I won’t need to rob a bank to import it.
Great news!
So far, this Critics’ Choice/Mill Creek/Columbia tag team is resulting in some great stuff. I’ve been wallowing in Jungle Jim pictures lately.
Toby, I’ll second Jerry in thanking Critic’s Choice/Mill Creek/Columbia for putting these really good William Elliott Westerns out for us at affordable prices. I hope they keep coming.
Looks, like no preview. sorry.
