This month
Silent DVD takes a look at one of the great comedies from the silent era,
Buster Keaton's The General. This hilarious civil war epic has been released once again with a new score by the
Mont Alto Motion Picture Orchestra, and it is the best sounding version of this classic currently available. That, along with the beautifully restored image makes this a
must-have disc. Be sure to check out

Romance of the Western
Chamber,
Pandora's Box,
