<DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: ; COLOR: "><FONT size=4>Sad to hear this. Given that
this is indeed a sort of “cult movie” they could have at least made a few
efforts in tweaking in the rendering, sound and image quality. Other “cult
movies” have recieved a splendid remastering treatment, why not “32”
?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: ; COLOR: "><FONT size=4>Amazon Germany just sent me one
of their CRM mails telling me that the movie is on sale as per today for either
16 or 20 Euros, the specs are confusing. On their data sheet is says 4:3 ratio,
while DJ tells us this is not the case. But they also claim that it is in PAL
All Regions (DVDR 0 ?) so this would be a (european) premiere on DVD outside
North America ! They also say they have limited stock which is also
confusing.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: ; COLOR: "><FONT size=4>And if you haven’t seen it, get
it now ! Not exactly a music biopic in the same spirit as Walk The Line, Hillary

surfaced recently.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: ; COLOR: "><FONT size=4>32 contains connected pastiches
or audiovisual variations on and about about GG ranging from straight fact to
brilliant fiction (“Truck Stop” might have indeed been an inspiration for IoN)
to animation, interviews and experimental scenes. I wonder how well it will hold
up or what Gouldians will say who have never seen this gem before.</FONT></DIV>

<P>Just popped the DVD in and watched...it looks like they simply reprinted the
DVD. There was no remastering done for the image...all the grains and
specks are relatively intact from the film's original release. The sound
is pretty good, but I think the audio was let untouched as well. The DVD
is indeed in 16:9 ratio widescreen, and considering that this film has a
relatively small but dedicated following, I would say it is somewhat of a
miracle that Sony re-released this DVD. I am really happy they made the
decision to print it again.</P>
<P>Happy Gouldian! :D DJWP</P>
