      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Bill Cosby stars as Himself in this delightful performance live from the Hamilton Place in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Covering such topics as drugs and alcohol, giving birth and raising children, and visits to the dentist, Bill can find humor in just about anything. (Tricia Littrell)

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD picture delivers the vintage onstage images of Cosby

    Soundtrack:
    The DVD includes a Dolby

    Reason #55 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review because it has had a consistent editorial perspective since its inception: a no-compromise approach to making home theatre the best that it can be. I have read the magazine cover to cover since Issue 2. Despite staff and reviewer changes over the years, thanks to Gary's leadership this perspective has never changed. As new technologies are introduced, Widescreen Review always provides in-depth analyses of not just the technology itself, but the political and industry forces that may be forcing compromises in its development. You have always sounded the clarion call to stop compression madness or any other madness that may force us to accept a home theatre experience that falls short of what it could be. Thank you!
