Bluray really does do amazing things to older films. You can barely even imagine watching DVD after viewing many of these films in 1080p. I give this one the full 5 stars as the old time feel with the pretty good script is fun, nostalgic, and meaningful though it may get a tad smug and schmaltzy at times. The acting and directing are in general stellar. Stunning photography finally brought to your screen how it should be. You won't want to ever go back to the blobby mess that is DVD again. Film grain is apparent and the encode has a decent bitrate. All in all a great release.
