George Feltenstein joins the podcast to review the five Blu-ray releases in September.  We start with Orson Welles' "Journey into Fear," a film that, despite its tumultuous production, bears the unmistakable mark of his Mercury Theatre influence. We continue with a spotlight on the Technicolor splendor of Esther Williams in "Bathing Beauty." The meticulous restoration reveals the film's vibrant musical scenes that catapulted Williams to stardom. Next, we discuss the noir "Conflict" starring Humphrey Bogart in a darker, anti-hero role.  And then we delve into the heartfelt story of "I Remember Mama," highlighting George Stevens' post-war directorial vision and his son’s dedication to preserving his legacy. We end with a Hanna-Barbera double feature with "JONNY’S GOLDEN QUEST (1992)/JONNY QUEST VS. THE CYBER INSECTS (1995)".
