Blu-ray available


I obtained a Blu-ray from Amazon UK. I think that the transfer was well-done and the image quality is excellent, to the point that the matte paintings jump out a bit. The diffusion used in Montez's close-ups isn't distracting; it appears to have been done with a fairly light touch, and very carefully controlled. Its fascinating to see restored 1940s Technicolor converted to Blu-ray; I was apprehensive that it might not be successful.

If you buy it from Amazon UK, does it play in the USA?

I know this question is quite old, but having just obtained the blu-ray from Amazon.uk, I can indeed confirm that this plays on a region A player (and region B as well, naturally). And it does look quite nice on blu!

The version on Blu Ray is not digitally restored but looks pretty good.
