Cult Epics is releasing Stay As You Are, with Marcello Mastroianni and Nastassja Kinski, and like some things better of left unsaid...
Miss Kinski is a lovely creature to look at, and equally delightful in person, but viewing her through the imagery of this new Blu-ray is an unpleasant experience.
The source for this release is problematic. And no matter what one tries to do with a poor dupe, there just isn't any way to make it look great.
Overall, the image is soft, and at times, just weird looking. Color is occasionally decent, but usually problematic. Grain generally isn't. Black levels are unfortunate.
Need I continue.
I support what Cult is trying to do, but my take on this release, would have been to put out a decent DVD, and leave the Blu-ray arena to better quality fare.
