      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Based on the memoirs of Gypsy Rose Lee, the film version of the play Gypsy has been regarded by many as an embarrassment, but for any pajama-clad four-year-old who sat bug-eyed and open-mouthed in the back seat of their parent

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced, windowboxed 2.40:1 DVD picture exhibits good quality. Though dated, images are sharp and detailed with excellent resolution. Colors are nicely balanced, with nicely rendered fleshtones and pure blacks. Contrast and shadow delineation are nicely presented for a picture that is quite pleasing. The slightest edge enhancement is noticed. Fine film grain and occasional artifacts are revealed.

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #86 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review because it offers in-depth, techno nerd detail level views and information about technology; integrated with a plain, easy-to-understand newbie explanation. The combination helps keep the inexperienced and experts alike informed, up-to-date, and market aware. Without Widescreen Review, I'd be just another large electronics store item purchasing sheep. Thank you for shepherding me towards the light.
