Any reviews on Zorba the Greek? (1 Viewer)

[Dennis Nicholls]

A search of "zorba" only turns up tangential comments here, including one that says the AR is 1:1.85 not 1:1.33 as advertised. Has anybody received this disk or know of a link to a review?

The DVD is definitely 1.85:1. I'm not sure where the 1.33:1 comment came from.

I was just noticing that there hasn't been an HTF review of a new Fox DVD in a few months. I thought they were being done by Adam Reiter, but a search shows he hasn't posted since May.

Aha I see that Intrigo has come through again....

Looks like 1:1.85 but not anamorphic......

DVDpricesearch and DVDPlanet are reporting it as 4:3. Most vendors are not listing an AR: neither does IMDB.

 

[Peter Apruzzese]

The review you linked to says it IS anamorphic 1.85.

Also, the box cover displayed at DVD Empire says "Anamorphic Widescreen".

 

[Randy A Salas]

The DVD is definitely anamorphic.

Adam Reiter is no longer the HTF reviewer for Fox and we're still in the process of getting Fox dvds to our new reviewer.
