Brief remembrances from actors Jane Fonda, Red Buttons, Michael Sarrazin, Bonnie Bedelia, former ABC Pictures President Martin Baum, Producer Irwin Winkler, and hair stylist Sydney Guilaroff, are included on analog 2 of the laser disc. The transfer is strong. It needs to be. Most of the movie is set in a dimly lit ballroom in Atlantic City. The disc is sharp enough to clearly define beads of sweat running down Red Buttons' face.
Details are clear in all lighting conditions.
The widescreen image is framed perfectly in 2.35 aspect ratio and the film is 120 minutes. Most recently, the ebullience of dance was brought to the screen with a totally fresh perspective in the delightful 1992 Strictly Ballroom . Down under irreverence permeates this spectacular directing debut from Baz Luhrmann. The divine comedy is a sentimental look, in broad comic terms, at the world of ballroom dancing. Strictly a laugh riot.
