Blu-Ray Review: Jaw-Dropping HD Transfer of Timeless ‘The Red Shoes’
Submitted by BrianTT on July 21, 2010 - 3:47pmCHICAGO – Can an old movie look too good on Blu-ray? This has been the subject of much debate, most notably in the over-removal of natural film grain by some production studios and the purists who think sometimes HD damages the original look of the film by coating it with too much polish.
