Miramax/Buena Vista,

Alas, while both Swingers and The Grifters look great, the Heavenly Creatures specs are a real disappointment. The film will be presented in full frame only and English 2.0 Dolby surround, with no extras aside from trailers. Let's hope Buena Vista comes to their senses, cancels this release, and produces the special edition this film really deserves. Sigh.Surely this cannot be true. A repress of the existing DVD available in Canada is simply not acceptable. Does this qualify as a family title that would, according to previous statements, warrant a full-frame transfer? Do you think that long lines of non-film lovers who do not care about the aspect ratio of a film will be lining up to buy this title? And do you think that film lovers will line up to buy a cropped film?
I certainly hope this is a mistake in reporting on DVDFile.com's part. You can be certain that I will not buy this title if it is not in the original aspect ratio, and I expect many others to refrain as well.
Please tell me that you are not taking the easy way out by just packaging the existing DVD for sale in the United States. Please tell me that this fine film will not be ruined with yet another poor treatment. Please tell me that you are listening to your film-loving customers.
Signed, A Film Lover
