Hour Of The Wolf
wrongly cropped from OAR 1.37:1 to 1.66:1 and it looks awful: MGM have not fully researched the OAR of this film. They have released this DVD in the wrong aspect ratio (1.66:1 instead of 1.37:1) resulting in A LOT of bad looking framing. The film may [... more]

Saraband
Bergman's Latest Gem: I saw this at a film festival earlier this year and didn't know what to expect. Bergman is my favourite director, but he hasn't turned out a feature film since 1984's 'After the Rehearsal,' so I didn't have my hopes up. However, it [... more]
