Does anyone know if this is Widescreen or Full Frame?
Most of the online DVD stores either don't say or have conflicting info.
I can't find any of the DVD release info on the Fox site, and all the UPC #'s are different.
This is really becoming frustrating...sigh.

According to the U.K. DVD Times website, Pretty Poison makes its DVD debut in fine if not perfect condition. We get the film at a ratio of 1.78:1 which slightly crops the 1.85:1 OAR and makes some of the compositions appear a little too tight (most notably in the opening scene). That said, we do get an anamorphic transfer and print that is in decent condition. Admittedly, the quality does alter from scene to scene at times, but on the whole the colours are pleasingly rich and the clarity is as should be expected. Much the same is true of the soundtrack. We get the original mono mix (spread over the front two channels) and for the most part it?s agreeably clear. There are times when background hiss does become a little too apparent, but otherwise there are no major problems to speak of.

I hope the stores will carry this. I just read up on it a few months ago, nothing too revealing, but it sounds very intriguing. I will definitely get this if someone has it. Otherwise, I'll have to order it online.
