      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Robert Redford

    DVD Picture:
    Originally released on DVD in 1999 (reviewed in Issue 38), A River Runs Through It looks much better on this new anamorphically enhanced DVD. Details are cleaner and more precise, although some minor smearing is evident at times. Colors are fully saturated and naturally rendered, with deep blacks. Pixelization is occasional, as are minor edge halos. Although the picture looks much better than the previously released DVD, by today

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #72 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I love to read WSR because of the straightforward, professional equipment reviews. I also LOVE the DVD reviews. As a home theatre fanatic, I want to know the technical and quality aspects of my future purchase/rental DVDs with just a brief synopsis of what the movie is about. Other home theatre publications spend way too much space reviewing the movie itself. I will make my own judgments on the merits of the movie, what I want from my magazine is some insight on how the DVD will sound and look on my system. WSR gives the reader just that. GREAT mag! Keep up the good work!
