A dreadful transfer of a great movie

I've seen a few Blu-Ray discs that aren't much of an improvement over the DVD, but this is a rarity, a Blu-Ray that actually looks bad. I already traded in my DVD and it's been a few years, so I can't see if it looks any better, but this is no improvement. The colors are faded and washed out, the picture is generally blurry and limp, and it's really not much different than watching an old VHS tape.

Some interior scenes, particularly those that take place in the diner, are completely washed out by bright sunlight coming in through the windows. These scenes look downright terrible. The rest of the movie is barely adequate.

If you already have this film on DVD, I'd recommend saving your money and avoiding this purchase. I have about sixty Blu-Ray discs and this is the first one I genuinely regret buying. November 8, 2008
