The Sting in DTS - are you kidding me!!
I have this on order with Amazon and I am SO looking forward to it arriving. This is one of my top 10 favorite films of all time and the prior DVD release was a tragedy of epic proportions. This release hopefully (finally) does justice to one of the best films in cinematic history (IMHO).
I was 6 or 7 when my Mom took me to this. It took me years to figure out what was happening in this film - I think I saw it again on TV when I was 12 or so (ah the days before VHS) and the lights finally went on, the "Sting" came into focus. Ever since then I have loved this film. It is just so layered, so well acted, so well set up, it is just amazing. And the music!! All those Scott Joplin tunes are so great. Made me fall in love with the piano too! Who knew an instrument could reflect the feelings of joy and sadness so powerfully (at 6, I certainly didn't!).
Thanks for the review!
Dave
