Review title: Good film, crappy DVD
Product review: This is a very good rock film, featuring a band who sadly had little success in America, even though they were immensely popular in the U.K. and Europe.Unfortunately, Sony did a really poor job with this DVD. The print they used is generally in good condition. However, the film was shot in Panavision (2.35:1 aspect ratio), but on the DVD only the credits are the full widescreen. The rest of the film is only slightly letterboxed, so that characters are routinely cut off the sides and the whole film has an "off-kilter" feel to it.On top that, Sony (in it's apparent never-ending desire to keep those dreaded black bars as small as possible) has made the height of the image slightly too tall, so that every edit (cut) in the film appears as a quick white line at the top of the picture. It's VERY distracting in the many dark scenes in the movie.Don't the people at Sony who do the work on these DVD releases have ANY quality control or take ANY pride in their product?
