Title: Good movie - bad DVD
Review: This movie happens to be one of my all-time favorites. I was looking forward to seeing it on DVD. Boy, was I disappointed. THE VIDEO QUALITY WAS HORRENDOUS. It was muddy, blurry, and loaded with scratches. Very distracting. I felt as if I was watching a well-used videotape.It's unfortunate that the quality is so poor, as this is fun movie to watch, if only for the colorful recreation of 1930's Chicago.I have purchased many older movies on DVD, and have often been amazed by the image quality (the cult-classic Two-Lane Blacktop comes to mind). In some instances, it was like seeing the movie for the first time. Not so with this P.O.S.In addition, the lack of widescreen is inexcusable, as is the lack of bonus material.In short: Don't be "stung". Avoid this DVD at all costs. Shame on you, Universal Studios.
