No to all.

I'm trying to take another capture right now but fucking MacOS's DVD Player won't let me. Fucking Apple likes to suck the cock of the studios and MPAA.

It's been years since I've seen D.W. Griffith's Birth of a Nation, so I can't say if this is it or not. These screengrabs just look too sharp to be from a film that old. Oh, well. What the hell. :P My guess is Birth of a Nation.

Cry me a fucking river. I never moan when you or Tom post caps of obscure Korean movies, or when Mark/Knetan post caps of obscure HK films.

First grab i'm posting is gonna be a vague one for this film as it has a very distinct visual style that will make any other kind of grab very easy to get:

I should have considering Carradine's elongated mush, but from knowing your taste in films and that clue I figured it had to be a John Ford film, so I just did a search for John Ford at DVDbeaver and luckily for me Shark Island was on the first page of results. In their review there's a grab of the geezer in the 2nd pic you posted. :D

Yay! :) I love that film.

I'll post a grab on Friday evening, and I promise it won't be horribly obscure. ;)
