Title: Once Again Disney Insults the Public
Product review: While it has been ages since I read the wonderful book this film was based on (so I don't have as much awareness of the changes made to the story), there is one major issue I take with the DVD: it is released in fullscreen.While watching the behind the scenes material, it is clear that this was filmed widescreen. Heck, the deleted scenes in the extras are IN widescreen. But how does Disney release the movie itself? 1.33:1.That is an insult to the movie-buying public: to hack off over 1/3 of the visuals that were filmed prior to the public release. Directors and cinematographers have reasons for including, or not including, certain things in the film frame. To tamper with that by chopping the film up shows no respect whatsoever for the source material.If Disney doesn't respect the film or the viewer, I certainly will not be buying this DVD. Nor do I recommend others buy this film.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
