Hollywood Playhouse - The Oscar’s Collection

Hollywood Playhouse - The Oscar's Collection is a unique compilation of 14 Oscar-winning films specially adapted for the radio and performed by many of the original film stars in front of a live studio audience. Originally broadcast on the radio, they were to become as popular with the public as the movies themselves.

These programmes have been re-mastered and re-edited from the original radio broadcast.
