I AGREE THAT THIS IS NO "RESTORATION"
At paying full price at $29.99 at Barnes & Noble and reading that it was a restored print from George Eastman House, I was expecting a lot more than what I saw. The DVD from a few years ago was better than this, though still flawed and needing further restoration. I give 2 stars only that the story is still one of the greatest regarding Hollywood of yesteryear. The transfer to Bluray is a shear disappointment, sound & picture, especially when one of the trailers for "Nothing Sacred" with Carole Lombard that is included in the Features portion is in so much better shape than this film. That film was restored. Someone needs to call Martin Scorcese, Thelma Schoonmaker & their teams to get this one back into pristine condition. I'm not wasting money on this classic again until it is fully remastered the way "Gone With The Wind" was done. Flawlessly.
