PARDES-PLATINUM
Now single sided with dual layering. Video
picture is
much brighter, sharper and without the
blemishes or
speckles that plagued the previous
release. Nice
upgrade.
The 5.1 dolby remastering is a huge
improvement over
the 4-channel Dolby Digital of the first
one, in
which the
center channel sound was missing, and adds
alot to
the enjoyment of the movie and songs ("I
Love My
India" and "Meri Mehbooba" in particular).
The
main menu graphics are colorful and
fun to use
especially the chapter index and song
menu, where
instead of a still picture you get a
moving image of
each possible selection. Unfortunately,
EROS/DEI has
once again made remote control use of the
subtitles
impossible.
You have to select from the main menu. And
wouldn't this have been a
good time for
EROS/DEI to try putting subtitles on the
songs as
well as the dialogue, since this is a
platinum edition?
And couldn't
they have put a few more extras:
filmographies,
biographies, audio commentary, deleted
scenes, etc.
As American DVD special editions do. Maybe
I'm
nitpicking, because overall I'm very
pleased with the
quality upgrade they did with "Pardes."
Hope they do
as good a job on their upcoming Platinum
DVDS.
