I read somewhere that the forthcoming DVD of 1940's The Letter was
supposed to also contain the 1929 version. I can find no information
on Amazon or elsewhere if this is true. Can anyone confirm this before
I order it? Thanks.

I, too, am eagerly awaiting this release, which is due Jan.11. I would suggest waiting a few days until Amazon lists the contents of the disk, but I am pretty sure it will contain the Jeanne Engels film as well as the Bette Davis one. >> Stay informed about: The Letter 1929??

The screener copies sent out to reviewers apparently did NOT contain the 1929 version of THE LETTER and attempts to find out whether it will be included in the version that appears in stores on January 11th has resulted in conflicting information. We will just have to wait and see, I guess. --John A. >> Stay informed about: The Letter 1929??

I am looking forward to the alternate 1940 ending. From the first time I saw the film (in 1940), I have never been satisfied with the ending. >> Stay informed about: The Letter 1929??

Judging by the screen caps at DVD Beaver, where the special features menu has no reference to the earlier version, I would say it is not included. Even if it was featured on the flip side, the menus would normally says something like "turn the disc over to access special feature X". Also someone at HTF claims a contact at Warners confirms that the material on the test disc is identical to the street version. I hope I'm wrong, but that's 3 reviews I have seen now with no mention of the 1929 version. >> Stay informed about: The Letter 1929??
