      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    At times exhuberant, at times overly intense story about a jazz singer (Minnelli) and a jazz musician (De Niro) whose lives cross and intertwine in the tail end of the big band era after World War II. Hated by some, others think New York, New York is a minor materpiece.

    DVD Picture:
    Exhibiting a dated and slightly soft appearance throughout, this non-anamorphic 1.66:1 DVD picture is satisfactory at best. Colors are generally well balanced, with nicely rendered fleshtones. The picture can have a smeared appearance, and the source element is revealing of film grain and artifacts. Images can look a bit

    Soundtrack:
    This Dolby

    Reason #98 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I have read this magazine from the very first issue; it’s simply the best and most informative and detailed magazine for home theatre. You can't live without it.
