Uh oh, here are the specs from Miramax's Enchanted April page: Bonus Features: Feature Commentary By Director Mike Newell And Producer Ann Scott Aspect Ratio: 1.33:1 Color: Color Regional Encoding: NTSC Sound: Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound Hmmm.....

Per Amazon, Enchanted April is coming out on May 5, 2009.

Woke up this morning to an e-mail with this subject line: "Enchanted April (1992) is now available to order from Amazon" Looks like the magic day is May 5, 2009!

Here are my thoughts: 1. A Superman movie doesn't necessarily have to be darker, but we do need it to be a little more realistic, real-world, believable... like all the successful superhero movies of this century have been. Take five or ten seconds to show that when Clark puts on his glasses...

I read elsewhere that the unaired pilot on the set actually is anamorphic, unlike the rest of the series. Weird.

This is the first I'm hearing that the opening credits music has been replaced. So what was it replaced with?

We still don't have anamorphic Annie Hall on regular DVD yet, right? His only Best Picture winnner... shame.

I agree... you have to see it more than once.

The late Katrin Cartlidge was a wonderful actress, so I can't wait to watch this DVD.

Bryan, I did like the film a lot. I purposely did not give an opinion yesterday because I wanted to let it stew in my brain a while longer. But Housekeeping is sticking with me more than any of the others at the festival, although of course it was the last one I saw there. The only other Forsyth...

I had been to Ebertfest in 2004 and 2005, and wanted to return this year because it was 20 years ago this month that I moved to Champaign-Urbana to begin my IT career, and I have many good memories of attending films at the historic Virginia Theatre (which hosts Ebertfest) and the nearby Nuart...

Oh, more about Bill's adaptation of the novel. It was observed that overall, the movie is about 90% faithful to the novel. Bill literally took two copies of the novel to cut and past whole passages into his planning book, studying it for several months before starting to write his version. He...

After the movie, right before the guests came out for interviews/Q&A, they showed Siskel & Ebert's original TV review from 1988 projected on the big screen. This TV review can be seen on atthemoviestv.com. Last night's screening of Housekeeping was a once in a lifetime experience. The print...

OK, look for my report on Sunday. I've never seen this movie before, but it seems like the kind I would like. Loved Christine Lahti in Running on Empty, which came out a year or so later I think.

I know what you mean, being in the same boat. But this is definitely a title that could make me jump. This is one of my favorite movies of all time.

Good Housekeeping news, though no DVD answers quite yet. Housekeeping will be shown at Ebertfest in Champaign, IL, on Saturday, April 26. Special guests will be director Bill Forsyth and star Christine Lahti, who will be interviewed and participate in questions/answers after the movie. So...

I sent for mine in June in response to an Amazon promotion, did not receive them by October, complained to Amazon about it, got five free from Amazon, then finally got the five free from Toshiba another month later. Now I'm selling almost all used or new (never opened) discs on the 'net and it's...

That could be why I said they were superficial reasons. Do some people only read every other word of these posts?

Now see, I have a different take. My admittedly superficial reasons for supporting HD-DVD over Blu-Ray were: 1. HD-DVD is a more logical name than Blu-Ray 2. I like the HD-DVD logo much better than Blu-Ray's 3. I like the dark red cases much better than the blue cases I jumped in last...

I bought my Enchanted April laserdisc about a year ago on eBay. Now I just need to buy my first-ever laserdisc player in order to watch it. The need to do so lessened somewhat after HBO broadcast this great missing movie a few times last summer....

Great movie, but I've seen it multiple times on HDNet over the past few months, so if I want to see it again in HD I can grab it from there....

It's anamorphic? Hmm, if true, my mistake.... thanks.

And will "Annie Hall" ever be re-released properly? 2007 is the 30th anniversary of the Oscar Best Picture winner, for Pete's sake!

Nobody ever answered his question about Enchanted April.... :-(

I don't know anything, but count me in as a big fan of Hairdresser's Husband.

Every day, several thousand people ride Splash Mountain, an elaborately themed ride (and my favorite at Disney World) featuring music and characters from Song of the South. So this will never just be some obscure movie they can keep swept under the rug. There will constantly be new people...

Enchanted April (1992) directed by Mike Newell (who also directed the last Harry Potter movie) starring Miranda Richardson, Alfred Molina, Jim Broadbent, John Plowright, Polly Walker... Great movie, great actors, not the most obscure title in the world..... but where is it???

Um, yes you can fast-forward an 8 track, although you can't rewind them. Being a packrat, I still have my three 8 track players from 25 years ago and they have fast forward.

I thought they did a decent job with this compilation and it's a good value, but here are my nagging thoughts... 1. Why did they shoot Brett's interviews at such an unusual sideways angle? 2. Would have liked more about the history and chronology of the show... not just the 60s up to 82, but...
