      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    When none-too-experienced prep-schooler Jonathan (McCarthy) is seduced by an older woman (Bisset), he meets at a bar, he falls madly in love with her. And Skip (Lowe), his man-about-town roommate is thrilled at Jonathan

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD exhibits a picture that can be quite pleasing. Colors exhibit good balance, with natural fleshtones, vibrant hues, and generally deep blacks. While the picture can be sharp, fine details are wanting, and the image can seem a bit smeared at times. The picture looks a bit flat and wanting in definition. Fine film grain and source element artifacts are noticed throughout. Edge enhancement is sometimes noticed, but other than the slightly soft character of the picture, distractions are minimal. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #18 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    There are, of course, a number of reasons why I read Widescreen Review. The primary one, however, is the excellent informative reviews and critiques on the latest DVD's, which are most helpful! In addition, there are many very informative articles on all aspects of home theatre, and I really view your magazine as an excellent resource for any home theatre owner in terms of ideas and excellent product information.
