Romantic, Heartbreaking
|Posted .Owned for 2 months when reviewed.A romantic, heartbreaking movie that will stay with you for years to come. I don't even know how many times I've watched this movie over the years. The scenery is beautiful.

easy
|Posted .Only issue I have is u cannot use more than one gift card for on line purchases. There was an item I wanted to purchase - can only purchase on line and I had 2 gift cards to cover the cost. The other issue, cannot order on line items thru store.

Excellent screen adaption
|Posted .First I must mention that the blu ray version has incredible extra features. I had not realized that besides this being an autobiographical novel-to-film, the author (played by Meryl Streep) also wrote "Babette's Feast" which received the best Foreign Film Oscar when it was released. Color, sound, picture, acting, script, etc is all top notch !

Classic film
|Posted .In my opinion the restored blue ray is the next best thing to being in the theatre. The natural beauty of Africa & the various animals shine brightly. Colors are natural and contrast good. Fine film grain is proof the restored film did not get DNR to death. First class restoration.

Beautiful DVD.
|Posted .It was a gift. I took a friend to lunch and she learned that I hadn't seen it. With her thank-you note, she included money to buy the DVD. The music and scenery are beautiful; Streep is marvelous.
