ALL DVDs? Rio Grande? Gone With The Wind? Rio Bravo? Double Indemnity?
Follow Ups:
Sad to say some people don't realize there were movies made for 75 years before Jaws and StarWars.Check out A Touch of Evil, Metropolis, Citizen Kane, or Der Blaue Engel for example.
On the other hand Singin' in the Rain was made with multitrack sound but got mixed down to mono. Until DVD came along almost noone ever got a chance to hear it as it really was!
It was? I always thought the "multitrack" versions of "Singin' in the Rain" derived at least in part from the MGM "angle" recordings: multiple microphone pickups not originally intended for multitrack reproduction (but remixed as such today). The Rhino/Turner soundtrack CD of "Singin'" is mostly in mono, with a few selections in stereo (again derived from the angle recordings).These angle recordings were used to make the "stereo" LD version of "Meet Me in St. Louis." Parts of "The Wizard of Oz" were also recorded this way. The recent "Sinatra in Hollywood" CD box set includes a number of excerpts from Sinatra's MGM musicals remixed to stereo, also from these sources.
Anyway, AFAIK "Singin' in the Rain" was meant to be presented in mono. Any multitrack recordings were purely incidental and not originally intended for multichannel use.
