But once that's done, the possibilities open up. You can do what I did and pick up an <i>all region</i> 1080P upscaling DVD player. Those units will improve the picture quality with your SD DVDs on the HD set while opening up other country content. Then, you can add (or be gifted) the Blu-ray Disc.

Have a great weekend also!<br /><br /><br />Steve Langton:<br /><br />I haven't seen PARIS, TEXAS in ages and am eagerly anticipating the upcoming Criterion edition of that also.<br /><br />I first saw WINGS while at university and it blew my mind, esp. the gorgeous B&W cinematography. It is such a poetic film, not to get all pretentious, but it's true! The remake was atrocious. So awful...<br /><br /><br />le0pard13:<br /><br />Ah! Good timing, indeed! That's weird about how the Blu-ray version is cheaper than the SD. Very odd. The extras on this edition are so well put together and quite comprehensive. I've already listened to more than half the commentary track.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164105442273577128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5407391624985829089.post-24020514580142676612009-11-06T13:15:23.284-05:002009-11-06T13:15:23.284-05:00Great write-up, J.D.

Believe it or not, I got it in Blu-ray Disc because that was <i>cheaper</i> than Criterion's SD version! I'm really looking forward to viewing this soon. Your review has such great timing.

The Criterion DVD sounds amazing. I may well plump for this if the forthcoming Blu-ray is light on extras.<br />This is one of those films that truly make you believe not only in the existence of the afterlife - but also in the immense power of cinema.
