    It wasn't hard to upgrade. The old dvd was oddly framed and even had cigarette burns visible IIRC.

    I should have made that clearer yes. There's barely any difference between 1.85:1 and 2.00:1 other than the black bars being a smidge thicker. For what its worth, the clip on Criterion.com is famed at 1.85:1 which is still different from their previous dvd (at about 1.77:1).

    That Elephant disc was a bit washed out from the caps I've seen (Sirk Technicolor is supposed to be L-U-R-I-D people). We'll see if Criterion keeps that grade or goes for the full effect.

    Reminder that this film was shot open matte so you're not gaining anything from 2.00:1

    The old cover was way better. Also yeah Criterion really took their damn time bringing this to blu. Wonder if the elements were crapola?
