Supporting Actor
Digital tinkering is a debate with no real right answer. Directors have every moral right to do it, but the preservationists have a right as well to see the movie they remember. With the exception of extremes ala Star Wars, I don't have much of an issue with it. If a director wants to remove wires because of the high resolution of Blu-ray, that's fine. If the director takes a hard line and says he won't do it, that's fine with me too. Wires and matte lines don't bother me, nor do I agree with what Richard Donner was implying recently that Blu-ray creates problems with visible lines, etc. If the transfer is a true representation of the master, then it's fine in my book. No problem.
