      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    After her husband is found murdered, former movie star Lee Winters (Fonda) decides to take control of his company, Winterchem. With the help of banker Hub Smith (Kristofferson), the two travel to Arabia looking to make a money deal. However, after discovering that a group of Arab investors are up to no good, they aren't sure what they can do about it or who they can trust. (Tricia Spears)

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD picture exhibits satisfying qualities, with generally sharp and detailed images. Colors often appear nicely balanced, with accurate fleshtones and deep blacks. There are some dated characteristics inherent in the source element, including some film grain and minor flecks of dirt and artifacts. Some pixelization and smeared details are noticed at times, but there is not obtrusive edge enhancement. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    Although dialogue sounds good in the Dolby

    Reason #127 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review magazine because it gives not only in-depth reviews on equipment, as well as new technologies and technical breakthroughs, but also it has the best information on DVD movies in the world!!! Because I love movies so much (I own over 300 DVDs), Widescreen Review helps me decide which ones will look and sound the best without me having to rent hundreds of DVDs each month. The month is not complete without my copy of Widescreen Review magazine!!! Wish I would get two or three copies every month instead of one!!! Thank you for helping me with my passion!!!!
