According to the story I heard, a woman came to Garry Marshall to audition her son.
Garry asked what he did. She said he just stands there - watching
He asked what else and she replied just that - watching.

She was in "A Chorus Line" too, pretty girl but a truly bad actress

She was in "A Chorus Line" too, pretty girl but a truly bad actress

I have to respectfully disagree. Certainly not a great actress and arguably not even a good actress. But I'd call her an adequate actress. Her film roles didn't place much demands on her as an actress, she had a nice screen presence and said her lines with a modicum of believability. She gave her roles what was required of them, nothing more. A better actress might have gone the extra mile and given more than the role required. But to call her a "truly bad actress" seems overkill at the very least. I've seen "truly bad" performances from Meryl Streep (Ironweed anyone?) and Cate Blanchett (too many to mention) but not from Ms. Jones.

Besides the color correction (removing the yellowishness) we also made the following corrections and adjustments to create our 161 Minute cut of the Theatrical version:

1. The “flip cut” transition/optical wipe from "Tuco talking to Blondie and taking a bite of his cigar to being hung" was restored to its original version

2. The fadeout to black of the "gun shop owner with the sign in his mouth" scene is now a cut to exodus scene.

3. The fadeout of the "Blondie passing out as Tuco is bringing him water" scene happens exactly 1 second later than how it was on old MGM DVD release of the Theatrical Cut.

4. The dissolve from "night" scene to "coach arriving at the mission" scene now fades up from black

5. The shot of the train leaving the station (with Tuco and Wallace on it) was supposedly longer in the US theatrical cut, before cutting directly to Tuco in the train and not dissolving out earlier to the early morning camp scene - Our 4K of the 161 minute cut matches the old MGM DVD of the theatrical cut exactly.

It will be released in 2018, we're currently looking at all our options. It's a surprise additional expense, so we need to go back to where the "stretch" error was made and fix the issue. And due to the 2 hrs. 45 mins running time, it won't be cheap - we could've cancelled the release and got our advance back, but decided against it.

The ten minutes of 1492 after the main titles have ALOT of video noise and pixel smearing esp. when seen against a black background. Very disappointing since the rest of the film looks pretty good.

A suggestion for the cover artwork for its blu ray release in September.

Ridley Scott who saw the transfer, was happy with it.
