Title: Disappointing Blu
Review: This movie took a very long time to make it to Blu Ray. So when it did I couldn't wait to upgrade this film from dvd to blu. Imagine my surprise to find this elegantly written, and beautifully photographed film to be quite grainy, overly contrasty, and drab. At one point I actually put in my old dvd to compare. Although it was softer in comparison the blu isn't that much of an upgrade. Heavy sigh. I believe the marketing term that they used is newly 'remastered'. Extremely hard to believe.John Toll deserved the Oscar that he won and the film is worthy of a better 'remastering' than the one that is offered here. Its a huge disappointment to see this movie in Blu. It is one of the poorest discs remasted in the medium. Buyer beware.
