      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    "Darling Lili" Smith (Andrews) was a popular singer who entertained the troops during World War I. But what no one knew was that she was a spy working for the Germans. When Lili was assigned to keep an eye on the handsome pilot Major William Larrabee (Hudson) she welcomed the opportunity. But when Lili realized that she had fallen in love with the man, she learned where her true loyalties lay. (Tricia Spears)

    DVD Picture:
    The anamoprhically enhanced 2.32:1 DVD exhibits certain dated characeristics, but the picture can be quite enjoyable. Sharpness and details are quite satisfying. Colors can be richly saturated and nicely balanced. The source element is revealing of some dirt, a few scratches, and minor film grain. Edge halos can be noticed at times, and there are signs of minor pixel breakup. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #4 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review to get the facts on equipment and industry news. I started reading your magazine as a consumer and found your level of education and technical detail refreshing when compared to the audio/video mass I read before.Now I run my own custom home theatre company and find your mag invaluable in keeping up with the direction this industry is going. I also give a subscription as a gift to each of my customers knowing that they will be further educated and will enjoy their equipment even more.
