5.0 out of 5 stars A delightful film
I first saw this film in 1971. I recently obtained a DVd of it and was delighted to find it as I remembered it. Gentle, intelligent, funny, warm, and - did I remember to say funny? Not unlike Mel Brooks "The Twelve Chairs", but less raucous. Yul Brynner and Eli Wallach obviously enjoy themselve as they vie for Lanie Kazan's affections and David Opatashu (as was his...

2.0 out of 5 stars o'k movie, DVD quality is horrible
I suppose it is not a bad movie. But to understand this, one needs to see it - which is all but impossible with this DVD. Obviously the image was transferred from a bad quality VHS without any corrections made to the picture. The screen is dark, everything is foggy and even scratchy a bit. It is quite a disspointment as the cast is interesting, the characters exotic and...

Not unlike Mel Brooks "The Twelve Chairs", but less raucous.

And it has a great ending as well.

NOT THE BEST YUL BRYNNER MOVIE,.. BUT IT IS HUMOROUS AND IT ALSO HAS ELI WALLACH IN THE MOVIE.
BEST YUL BRYNNER MOVIES ARE WESTWORLD, MAGNIFICENT SEVEN, ULTIMATE WARRIOR (BEST)!!!!!!!!!!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Romance of a Horsethief, November 5, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Romance of a Horsethief (DVD)
I remember seeing this film years ago and enjoyed it, but the DVD I bought through Amazon (from a third party seller) was unwatchable. It wouldn't play in either of my DVD's or my computer. The DVD case artwork and the DVD itself looked to be low-quality productions. Looked like a bootleg. I returned it.

I would like to see this film released in high-quality by the original studio/production company
