Summary: Perfect Film Disgraceful Transfer to DVD
Review: This is one of my FAVORITE movies. Despite the horrible transfer to DVD I still watch it often. I am writing this with the hopes that with the stellar release of Polanski's Tess the powers that be WILL do a new transfer of this Polanski masterpiece. A new digital transfer in WIDESCREEN format would do justice to a film that deserves it. PLEASE. This is a 5 star film .

Summary: Great movie, but the dvd is terrible!
Review: I think this is one of my favorite movies of all times, yes I am a sucker for movies set in Paris! And the fact that this is a mystery thriller of sorts.
The movie itself is good, i've watched it at least 5 times, but the dvd is HORRIBLE (that's why the 3 stars rating). There is NOTHING in this dvd, just the movie. Not even subtitles or a trailer.
The movie itself doesn't look that great when played. It lacks the smooth quality of dvd movies.
I hope they re-release it because it is just aweful. Really disappointed with the quality of the dvd!!

Summary: One of Harrison's worst...
Review: After I watched this, I was frantically trying to get my money back. Having been too young to see it when it came out in the theaters, I thought that I'd give it a try on DVD. I've loved pretty much everything that Ford has been, but this one certainly does not go on my list. I think that the basic premis of the movie is a good one... man and wife go to exotic foreign city, woman vanishes from hotel room, man scratches his head, hotel offers no clue, man goes crazy (or becomes frantic, i guess)... but the main chunk of the movie, the 'frantic' part, is put together poorly.. it is hard to follow, at best, and the collection of characters that Ford encounters is a blur. This movie is best watched on cable on a Sunday afternoon as you fall asleep on the couch.. do NOT waste your money on a personal copy of the DVD!
