The older the better. I also prefer to own, rather than to stream. Yes, the sound quality, and the picture quality, can be poor as compared to current standards, but if you know about the history of the equipment used to create the film; the fragile type of the film itself; the condition in which they were likely stored; and the quality of speakers and recording equipment which were used at the time; then you will not be bothered by the poor sound/picture quality at all. You will simply feel that the poor sound quality is a normal part of the viewing experience.It is completely unfair to judge an antique by modern standards. Instead, focus on the story, the filming techniques, the costumes, the furnishings, the architecture, the dialog, and the historical social significance of the film.It is also completely unfair to judge the past by present values. Are there offensive bits in old films which would never be tolerated today? Most probably, but why be offended when you can just as easily choose to understand how far we have come? In some respects we have come far, socially. In other respects, we have seriously digressed. I also like to see the contrast in the ways society has devolved as compared to the time in which they made these old films. Why bother watching historical films, if you don’t learn from them?PROS:Condition as expected. I enjoyed it.CONS:As in most antique media: Contents are sometimes in random order. Often menus don’t work. Usually you have to resize the aspect at which they are played. I consider these all to be a “normal” part of the experience.COMPS:As compared to modern films, adjust your level of expectation. When you approach them in this way, you will not be disappointed.VERDICT:Met or exceeded my expectations. Good/great value for money.I hope you found this information helpful. Have a great day! ~Savvy Shopper ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fun movie--great cast *by M***E on Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2020* Ronald Coleman, at the end of his career, is still a great leading man. In this movie he is in competition with Cary Grant. In the end, Cary gets the girl--the ever delightful (except in westerns, in my opinion) Jean Arthur. Actually, the director filmed two endings, one for each hero and asked early audiences which they preferred. Cary won, but I would have voted the other way.I especially liked the very moving speech Ronald Coleman (playing a Supreme Court nominee) gives the jury. It is a classic. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ a masterpiece of a 'sleeper' *by A***S on Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2007* George Stevens' 'The Talk Of The Town' is an absolute paradigm of great filmmaking. a perfect ensemble in casting directed by a giant in the film industry. this film was an early "gem" from director George Stevens. the premise, the acting and direction are all superb. this one will have engrossed throughout.it's very disparaging to realize that films such as this aren't produced anymore. nothing by modern standards is even remotely comparable to this rare classic. the subleminal moral tones that are integrated throughout are stimulating in an era in which profanity, graphic violence and explicit sexual innuendo have become such a common integral part of today's films.i am 41 years old and i have been endeared to the classics since i was 18. i am proud of this nation's golden era of filmmaking in which integrity, honesty and morality were the foundational elements in films such as this.as for the DVD, the print is not dismally poor quality as one reviewer has stated. it is not pristine but is not atrociously inferior either. it is a very watchable version of a true classic. the sound is excellent. all classic film lovers should definitely buy this one!!! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/3515519-the-talk-of-the-town](https://www.desertcart.us/products/3515519-the-talk-of-the-town) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
