      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Paul Simon: You

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD (not credited on jacket) picture exhibits image quality that is quite pleasing. Images can be a bit soft under the stage lighting, but detail can be nicely rendered. Colors are rich and well balanced, with accurate fleshtones, and deep black backgrounds to contrast the blue and red lights that brighten the stage. There is some aliasing and minor shimmering detected, but otherwise the picture is solid. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    Both Dolby

    Reason #19 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I’ve been reading WSR since Issue 1. I have never had any problem, any misunderstanding, or any doubt about their published articles or interviews. They are absolutely thrust full. The articles look like a Master Business Course. It is a fantastic well-written magazine with brilliant topics, thanks to the capacity of the editors and their teams. Years ago, I discussed this in Las Vegas with a George Lucas THX engineer, and at the end of two hours he agreed with me. My information was based on all the WSR issues I had read.
