Have loved this movie forever.
This is one of those films that practically never plays on TV -- the last time it was on TV that I know of was back when American Movie Classics (AMC) was still a non-commercial films-only channel....that long. And to the best of my knowledge, it was never released on videocassette. So, I had little or no hope of ever seeing it on DVD. It's a delightful film -- if you ever saw it years ago and are asking, "Is it as good as I remember?"....yes, it is.
I've got a whole list of old movies that haven't been out on DVD yet....this one coming out gives me hope for the others.
Great movie...bad transfer to DVD
I first saw this film in 1997 in a film class and fell in love with it. It's a very sad and depressing film, just like I like 'em. The transfer to DVD has made the film very dark and it's hard to see the actors. Having said that, I would still buy it. What a great commentary on living a simple life.
Arrived in perfect estate, but bad transfer colorwise.
Film arrived in perfect condition, however, THE ENTIRE BEGINNING OF THE FILM WAS BADLY TRANSFERRED COLORWISE. THE TV WAS ADJUSTED AS TO COLOR, BRIGHTNESS and EVERYTHING ELSE WHILE THE FILM NEVER COULD BE CORRECTED COMPLETELY. THE COLOR RED WAS ALMOST NON-EXISTANT, YET HEAVILY USED IN THE CREDITS AT BEGINNING. BAD TRANSFER, otherwise, ok story. Both Jean Peters & David Wayne always rose to the occation no matter the film.
