Over the course of the evening the two have a series of misadventures, which ends with Oscar being completely smitten with Amy. However, Oscar s plans to romance Amy are dashed when he is forced to play along with Newman s mistaken assertions about his sexual preference. Of course, Oscar s gay business partner finds the situation both hilarious and something of a relief, since Oscar s feeling for Amy won t sabotage their business dealings with Newman. Nevertheless, as Oscar spends more time with Amy, it becomes increasingly difficult for him to keep the truth a secret, even though the entire city now thinks he is gay, due to his business dealings with Newman. Colors are wonderfully vibrant and perfectly reproduced, without any distortion or bleeding.
Flesh tones are just about perfect, as is the picture s black level.
This well authored DVD doesn t betray any signs of digital compression artifacts. There are very few overt directional effects in the movie because there isn t any need for them. Dialogue reproduction is excellent, with everything being fully intelligible and the actor s voices sounding very natural. Music reproduction is a standout, with the swing music being played during the opening and closing credits sounding quite marvelous. Additionally, I must mention that the music is the only sonic element that makes consistent use of the surround channels.
