Feels like 3rd generation copy. No film studio identified on (sub-par printshop) cover, package seems copy-ish and mostly in korean characters, film less sharp but slightly more jittery than hollywood. Way better than bootleg quality though, and great price(considering it's out of dist)/ reliable shipping. NOW: this says unedited version but it IS very censored ! NO CROTCH SHOTS!! Only big black
conspicuous circles instead. This is not the bargain version you've been waiting for! --unless you are the "censorship priest" from Cinema paradiso. Well, you get what you pay for. Maybe we should Petition Canal+ for re-release!!

Im writing this review to let you know to beware of whom you get this movie from. amazon unfortunately does'nt carry this movie so you have to get it from someone else. Just to let you know the Korean version is edited with bib black circles. It's no ones fault , but the sellers of the DVD don,t seem to want you to know that. Esp. bestbuyvds. When I mentioned my dissapointment with the DVD to them they were very defensive and unprofessional about it. Just a little heads up. If you can get a good version of the movie go for it.

Antonioni's last film has a lot going for it, and it is frustratingly out of print in the US, but getting this censored, badly transferred
version isn't really an answer.

You're better off looking for reasonable deals (here, ebay, ioffer, etc) on the used US version, or if you have
a region free player getting the current UK release, then seeing this mangled mess.
