BRD-release
Just a quick warning to whomever plans to buy the "Universum Film" blu ray of this excellent film.
I bought and watched it yesterday and the quality was appalling. From what I understand this BRD is marketed as a "remastered"-version but it looks nothing like that. Comparing it to the excellent "Goldfinger"-BRD for example, it's no contest.
Picture is grainy, dirty and fuzzy, "lighting/contrast" is way off in a lot of scenes and the audio sounds like it was recorded inside a tin-can.
While I love the actual film, I cannot recommend this BRD-version of it. Probably best to wait for someone more competent to do an actual restoration.
