Title: A Great Disappointment
Review: A two-part docu-drama that I remember to have been quite striking when first broadcast. Dramatically, it holds up fairly well, although I found it a bit more heavy-handed than I remember it. Some great performances by Powers Boothe, Randy Quaid, Albert Hall, Levar Burton, Veronica Cartwright, Brad Dourif, Meg Foster, and others. But this print is horrendous! Terribly grainy to the point of being out of focus, colors are over-saturated, and full of dust, dirt, pops, jumps and skips. And the sound is muffled, subject to irregular dropouts, and often distorted. I will not keep it in my library. It's a shame because it would have been worth watching again sometime. I guess the studio didn't think it worth digitally cleaning up the original.
