AFRICA SCREAMS has been in the public domain for years. This dusted-off version looks and sounds the best of a-n-y version I've seen.

if this is a bad print then why they release it again every one knows that all the other releases are bad prints so then they would know they wouldnt make much money which is why I think this print will be the best quality dvd of africa Scraems ever released. They should also release jack and the beanstalk to but with a good quality print.if this dvd good enough its a Low chance but it may push the other compinies to put out the abbott and costello films that are not avaivble on Dvd yet.
