Title: the movie is wonderful but not the DVD
Review: I think this movie is much better than It's a Wonderful Life which gets more press. The characters are loveably zany and an ensemble of great actors play them. However, the DVD is a real disappointment. It is advertised as 'digitally remastered' and HiDef quality which it is. BUT EVERY SCRATCH AND DING in the master has been lovingly 'remastered' along with it. I am amazed that they didn't clean up the movie. Movies half the price - like His Girl Friday done by LaserDisc - are absolutely clear and clean as well. This classic deserves a better effort than this so jeers to the company, whoever they are. I'm selling this one and waiting for a better attempt, thank you very much. Buy it only if you haven't seen the movie.
