This review is from: Enchanted April [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.4 Import - Australia ] (DVD)

I was very pleased to see this film was to be released on DVD. 'Enchanted April' is a lovely and uplifting film, beautifully shot. Unfortunately this DVD edition is a cheap Mother's Day knockoff. It appears to have been mastered from the VHS edition with absolutely no adjustments or enhancements of any kind. It's hard to imagine the VHS edition being worse. The menu screen, which is barely necessary, is actually ugly - a considerable feat when this film is bursting with beautiful imagery. The picture is grainy, fuzzy and full screen with poor contrast and saturation.

If you love this film don't sully it's memory with this travesty.

Why is it when "Braineating Zombies from the Planet of Rancid Puss" can get the royal DVD treatment, cinema gems like 'Enchanted April' get treated so shoddily? Sadly we all know the answer to that question...

5.0 out of 5 stars U.S. Release?, January 16, 2006

So why in the world isn't there a U.S. release yet? I remember seeing this movie at an independent movie house back in the early 1990's and absolutely loved every aspect of it. I have it on tape which is quickly becoming archaic so why not release it on DVD by this time? Surely, by the 2000's this delightful movie is deserving of a U.S. release. I know I would buy it as well as purchase it as a gift for many friends of mine. I know at least ten other people who would love this film. This movie is pure escapism and completely beautiful; too bad it's not available for U.S. citezens.

5.0 out of 5 stars A rare and delicate delight, March 10, 2006

Let me add my voice to those asking for a DVD release of this film in the USA. Enchanted April is a perfect example of those films with subtle but distinctive characterization, a perfect balancing of character opposites, awareness that landscape illuminates character, and that elusive island magic so characteristic of the best British films. As others have already noted, it's a film to be enjoyed many, many times.
