Say One For Me



Only one third of the image, and a travesty of a worthy film.
Thanks to the previous reviewer for saving me the disappointment and money of ordering this. It's the same pan and scan print Fox shows on TV, and so it's reputation continues to troll in the mud. In point of fact, though, Tashlin did a lot of creative stuff with the scope frame, especially with the choreography and in the bar scene, and Crosby and Walston are terrific in it. Don't buy this version though. It's total butchery. Shame on Fox for charging top dollar or any dollar for the kind of print you might have seen on TV at 3 am 30 years ago.

SAY ONE FOR ME
SAY ONE FOR ME was made in cinemascope but i but i think this dvd is full screen since all other that were released that were cinemascope films were full screen. So i would not buy this film which i like very much but i already have a copy from tv. And charging a price of 19.99 is shear robbery. They start the movie in widescreen but after the credits it goes full screen it is a disgrace and they should sell them for 5.00.

JEERS TO FOX HOME VIDEO!!!!!
FOX HOME VIDEO has got to be kidding releasing WIDESCREEN films in the pan and scan (fullscreen) version...most TVs now are widescreen and every home video distributor releases films in their original WIDESCREEN format...even the on demand films released by Warner Home Video...If I wanted the fullscreen version I would have taped it off of Fox Movie Channel...VERY BAD NEWS for the consumers who buy these films...stay away from FOX CINEMA ARCHIVES COLLECTION!!
