Saw last night the french release of "I MARRIED A WITCH" with Fredric March and Veronica Lake and I was very, very disappointed... the sound was awful throughout, with a permanent hiss, and the picture quality not much better.
To make things worst, the print was taken from a non-english language copy of the film, as a newspaper article was translated into polish, or so it seemed to me. Anyway, was definitely not english (or french for that matter).
It also had the ending tampered with. Some frames seemed to be missing (the jumps between scenes was too sudden) and the end credits were replaced by a black screen with "The End" written on it. I am not sure if anything was actually cut (I hadn't seen the film) but it was something wrong with that final sequence.
In short, avoid it. It's overpriced and definitely not worth it. And I am going to think twice before I buy any other DVD from that distributor.
