Region 2 DVD horribly dark...how does Region 1 look?


The European region 2 DVD release of this film from Universal has a picture-transfer that is horribly dark and muted. The colors (especially in Michelle's red jacket!) should sparkle, but they are suffocated to the point of blandness. Having seen the film both in theatres and on television and knowing that this is not the way it should look, I was wondering if this problem is limited to the Region 2 release. Anybody with the Region 1 DVD noticed this problem or does the film look fine on your Region 1 discs?

reply

yes; region 2 is dark and the red is not ok. i thought something was wrong with my installation. Good to read it is not. Still a good movie, though.

I just watched Region 1 last night, and everything looked great.
