3.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous movie, poor DVD quality., October 8, 2004

By	Moviefanatic (Chicago, Il) - See all my reviews

5 stars for the movie which is phenomenal. 1 star for the DVD quality. The picture is quite blurry as if the transfer was done from a VHS recording of a TV showing. In spite of this, the viewing is still quite enjoyable due to the stunning visual qualities of the movie. I guess this DVD version is better than nothing. I found it available at moviesunlimited.com.

5.0 out of 5 stars Long Before Lola, March 26, 2006

By	Pit O'Maley "coerf agile" (Alameda, Ca United States) - See all my reviews

One of the most charming war/romance fables that human imagination devised, executed wonderfully by Michael Powell. Heavenly cast with David Niven and Kim Hunter as the star-crossed lovers,supported by a host of wonderful character actors. Marvelous use of b&w and color for realm changes. Raymond Massey and the wonderful Roger Livesey round out the drama with credibilty in every scene. Contains a heart-stopping argument on the meaning of life, justce and the ultimate arbiter of such. Worth every flight

1.0 out of 5 stars A bit much, April 27, 2006

By	K. Ballweg (Tillamook, Or) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Really a bit much to pay for a poorly reproduced pirated version don't you think?
