      WSR Narrative Review
    Special Notes:
    Available separately in a 1.33:1 (4:3) modified version.

    Story Synopsis:
    Andie Anderson (Hudson) is stuck in a rut writing

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD exhibits image quality that is just fine for the typical romantic comedy, with images that are generally sharp and detailed, save for the scenes that exhibit an intentionally soft focus. Colors are nicely balanced, with accurate fleshtones and deep blacks. Contrast and shadow delineation are naturally rendered. Some minor edge enhancement is noticed, and pixelization is minimal. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #103 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    It sat on the nightstand while my husband was deployed. It was “his” magazine. I had my own cooking, home decorating type magazines to peruse. However, one night I reached for Widescreen Review. It was love at first read. I learned so much about new technology and products. I enjoyed the articles and appreciated the reviews. My husband returned home from his military commitment in early July. We now share the magazine, and sometimes we even fight over it.
