5.0 out of 5 stars It's a Widescreen copy., February 27, 2010

This review is from: Trapeze (MGM Limited Edition Collection) (DVD)

For those a little leery of ordering this copy, rest assured it is in its original widescreen aspect ratio of 2.35. The quality is identical to the Warner Archive release of 'The Big Circus', colors fluctuate from vibrant to soft but is not enough to distract from the films power. It is definitely better than the showing on 'Turner Classic Movies' so if you are a fan of the film like I am, you will cherish this release

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautifully photographed love story in circus setting, November 19, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Trapeze [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Great circus shots in a beautiful miniature European circus surround a love triangle. Lots of tension, suspense, interesting characters and a great climax! Tremendous photography of aerial stunts and other circus action.

I must complain about the Amazon information lately. What happened? I'm a regular customer, but I wouldn't buy TRAPEZE unless you tell me more about it. What is "Format: NTSC". I remember that Amazon used to inform in that item: ANAMORPHIC WIDESCREEN, COLOR, 2:35, etc., not to mention about subtitles or anything like that. I won't buy any product without knowing what's in it, like special features, digital transfer, soundtrack remastered, behind-the-scenes documentary or audio commentaries. It's all you expect to find in a new DVD, specially an MGM original from a United Artists production. I can't buy TRAPEZE to find a poor letterbox version (not anamorphic widescreen enhanced for 16:9 television sets) like other MGM releases. Please: I NEED TO KNOW MORE DETAILS.
