Warner's Blu-ray release of The Adventures of Robin Hood is magnificent in every way.
Harvested from incomplete surviving original negatives with missing units filled in with masters, The Adventures of Robin Hood is a perfect example of what thoughtful and precise film restoration using the latest in digital tools can yield.
One of the huge problems of three-strip Technicolor was that films were exposed on black & white negative with an ASA (film speed) of 5, with much of the light being lost in internal prisms and filters.
You'd never know it from looking at this miraculous Blu-ray.
An extraordinary release that is is as good as it gets.
Extremely Highly Recommended!
