Wow...FINALLY the release the film deserves!
I have the Artisan DVD release from several years ago, and have watched it only one time. I was appalled by the horrible picture and audio transfer. It ruined all fond childhood memories of the film.With the new DVD release (which I have bought and have watched), the film is back alive and better than ever. Sure, some middle parts of the film are a little slow and dull, but the film has wonderfully intelligent and beautiful art and scenes (any red bull scene), and the musicial score by "America" is actually infectios at times.The digital transfer is as clear and crisp as it could be, both image and sound. The voice talents are also solid throughout, with the random exception of awkward dialogue for Mia Farrow. The colors are full and rich, and the sound really booms at times.Do not be discouraged from the prior DVD release, this is wonderful.
