Bought a DVD of Proud Rebel (1958) years ago, looking forward to seeing it again. It had been decades. Popped the disc into my player — and maybe four minutes later, took it out. (Watched a few episodes of Dragnet instead.)
The point is that given the material out there on this movie, you might be better off not watching it at all. Which is the predicament I’m sure our friends at ClassicFlix are about to take care of. As they tell it, “The Proud Rebel scan we have acquired is in 4K and from an IB Tech print. It has some inherent flaws, but will be, by far, the best presentation of this beloved Western once we’re done restoring it.”
Can’t wait, y’all.
