With very little fanfare, at least to my ears and eyes, the
film 'A Double Life', featuring the great Ronald Colman in
his (only) Oscar winning-role, was released to DVD last
week (under the Republic Pictures banner).
Was the fanfare limited because of problems with the
quality of the DVD? Personally, especially with
older films, I try to be more accommodating
toward quality issues. With a film such as
'A Double Life' which to my knowledge was
never even released on LD, I have often
thought I would be prefectly happy with
a DVD equal to the quality of the print
used for broadcast on TCM.
