How pathetic that one of the greatest uses of Shakespeare on screen has no current Region 1 DVD in print. If ever they do release this film, they have to include accurate, legible English subtitles, since, as many of us who love this movie already know, the sound recording and editing of the original was atrocious due to budget constraints. There's no way to restore the sound when the original was never properly recorded, and this is a movie where you want to know what's being said at every possible moment because the language is beautiful in its vulgarity, in its jest, in its sentiment, and in its nobility.
