      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Going for the prize of the quickest release from theatre to DVD, "From Justin To Kelly" is a no brainer featuring America

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD exhibits a colorful picture that is richly saturated, with accurate fleshtones, bright hues, and deep blacks. Contrast and shadow delineation are excellent, with natural sunkissed beaches and neon-lit night scenes. Images are generally sharp and detailed, though some scenes appear a bit fuzzy. Some smearing of finer details is also noticed. Edge enhancement and pixelization are limited for a picture that is generally pleasing throughout. (Suzanne Hodges) Also includes a modified 1.33:1 (4:3) version on the flip side (not reviewed).

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #105 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    Since Issue 5 (my first), I focused on reviews of Laser Discs and now DVDs, and From The Editor's Couch. Also, WSR has a lot of punch in the new equipment features. The technical essays have been superb! My home theatre setup depended (and still depends) on knowledge gained from WSR. WSR has become the media reference for me with regard to picture and sound quality assurance in display equipment and widescreen entertainment (movies, music events, and documentaries). I still do not have Issues 1 through 4 or the Premiere Special Edition of WSR and hope you put them on the subscribers' site eventually, so that I can giggle at some of the early typos and slips (if you leave them in). However, I'm sure that the early editions make for interesting historical reading as well, because I believe WSR has moved the display industry forward through the pushing the envelope attitude of Gary Reber. Carry on.
