Wonderful Movie...Bad Transfer
Since purchasing a DVD player a year and a half ago, I have often come across reviews that bemoan the "transfer quality" of a particular title. Now...I know what they are talking about.While this is one of my all-time favorite movies, I was extremely disappointed in the picture and sound quality. Film grain is evident throughout and at times the highlight values of the picture seem overexposed.I give the movie 5 stars. I give the "transfer" 1 star. Since this is not likely to be re-released as a "Special Edition" I would reluctantly recommend buying this title, only because it will have a longer shelf life than the VHS edition.
