I'm not a fan of colorization, but it is stunning and worth a look.

I have to disagree. I watched it and although it looks more natural than earlier efforts at colorization, it still seems fake to me. I just don't buy the colors - they look strangely artificial much of the time...

So did dvdbeaver just get an early, uncorrect copy or are the pops still there? I'd pick this up again if they were fixed.

Colorizing 'It's a Wonderful Life' is basically like goldplating a gold ring. For a film with such superb B&W cinematography and presented near flawlessly on DVD, it's really just for people who can't stand anything other than color.

I barely agree with you on that point, but the clarity was amazing be it a tad bit off.
