The movie runs the full 1:45 (105 minutes), and there's no evidence of any editing or PAL speed-up. It's just yet another problem with that awful insert that was used for this title. I'm sure if you read through this thread you'll see all sorts of objections to the picture used depicting a...

Thanks Ric, I'll play around with it some more when I get some time. Good work on the cover though! Harry

Looks good, but how do I get it to print out at the full and proper size? The jpg viewer that comes with Windows XP has a print function, but the printed output is reduced a little in size. If I use what looks like the fuller option there, it crops off part of the picture, particularly the right...

This morning, with a little time to kill, I thought I'd do a side-by-side comparison of the old LaserDisc of THE SILENT PARTNER with the new DVD. My TV has the capability of placing images side-by-side at the same time, so with the old LaserDisc in the LD player and the DVD recorder playing the...

Ric, I found this somewhere on the web: Harry

I received my copy in yesterday's mail and watched it through. Here's my review for THE SILENT PARTNER: THE SILENT PARTNER (1978) Lionsgate DVD (2007) 12236 21171 6 starring Elliott Gould, Christopher Plummer, Susannah York Screenplay by Curtis Hanson Music by Oscar Peterson...

While I don't know if mine has arrived yet (I'll check the mail when I get home), I happened to be in a Suncoast store at the lunch hour today and they had a copy of THE SILENT PARTNER. The spelling is corrected on the front, both names, and it definitely said 16x9 enhanced for widescreen...

Mine hasn't yet arrived (drat!). Probably tomorrow. Harry

No, but just this minute I got a shipping confirmation from the place where I ordered the disc. Getting it tomorrow is unlikely. Perhaps Monday, certainly on Tuesday, release day. Harry

By the way, just for the heck of it, I clicked on the "correct product info" link at Amazon's listing for THE SILENT PARTER, recommended that they change it to anamorphic widescreen and 1.85:1. They sent me a followup email stating that they'd check it out and update the listing in a "few days."...

Well, at least on this back cover pic. The front covers still displayed everywhere still have "Suzanne" York and "Elliot" Gould. Hopefully that mistake has been caught for the real covers. We'll know in a few days. Harry

Good news. This picture of the back cover of THE SILENT PARTNER at DVD Empire shows that it IS anamorphic widescreen 1.85:1 Hooray! :) I was going to comment that I hoped that the specs were wrong since there is ANOTHER title out there called SILENT PARTNER that is listed as...

On the surface, you'd think the fact that I own the LaserDisc of this title would make me happy, but it's one of the worst transfers ever to that format. It's an absolutely miserable print, with an awful-sounding soundtrack. So, hopefully, even if the DVD is full-frame, it might still be an...
