Story Synopsis:
Alex Whitman (Perry) is a Manhattan construction supervisor building a nightclub in Las Vegas. There, he meets Isabel (Hayek), a fiery Mexican-American who believes in the power of destiny. Neither gives a thought to where a single night of passion would lead, but meet up three months later, when she announces she is pregnant and they get married. Two people from different cultures, they are forced to maintain their individuality while adjusting to a newlywed lifestyle.
LaserDisc Picture:
The 1.85:1 picture presents a gold hue through some of the scenes. Otherwise, the color fidelity is natural throughout. Images are generally sharp and detailed with excellent shadow detail. Only slight noise is apparent.
LaserDisc Soundtrack:
The soundtrack is excellent with a spatially dimensional presence offering a terrific music score that images wide and deep. Bass extension is often deep, reaching below 50Hz. The dialogue, however, sounds veiled and “produced.”
