betty boop Posted January 27, 2024 Posted January 27, 2024 On back of masters of the air, checked out Memphis Belle on blu-ray this afternoon this is an old release from back in 2014 ! and the original movie from 1990 (i remember catching and much enjoying this on VHS back in day ! ) so a movie thats about 34 years old ! to watch it, its plain amazing what they achieved, they had 5 real B17 that reduced down to 4 when one was destroyed during filming. Beautifully with way characters are formed and how non stop it is with the aerial action, drama a plenty ! audio on this comes up very well with DTS Neural -X doing a wonderfull job with quite a good surround mix. Shot originally on 35mm and could do with a restoration, and grain a plenty. took a few screen shots so can see what looks like ... screen shots do accentuate the grain, and better with own eyes but it is what it is and still an excellent watch ! 3
