Oh, Disney's TREASURE ISLAND is a life-long favorite. The DVD is a knockout. I didn't know a Blu-ray had been announced, but I can just Imagine how brilliant the picture will look. I miss this kind of color and the aesthetic of the mind that creates it. Of course it could not be achieved today because of the change in technology, but the inclination to go for it seems to have gone, if you know what I mean.Robert Harris said:I'm counting the days until Treasure Island (Disney) finally arrives on Blu-ray. Freddie Young's work on that film is extraordinary. What keeps coming to mind are the shots of Bobby Driscoll hiding the apple barrel. What gorgeous cinematography!
And all shot with a behemoth camera.
