The Magnificent Ambersons (DVD)

The story of Orson Welles and his 1942 film THE MAGNIFICENT AMBERSONS is one of Hollywood\'s most intriguing and mysterious soap operas. The legendary filmmaker\'s completed film was drastically re-edited by its studio, RKO Pictures, prompting a battle which raged for years and created decades of speculation among film enthusiasts and scholars. Finally, in 2001, the cable channel A& E took Orson Welles\' original shooting script and realized it in this lavish production, directed by the acclaimed Mexican auteur Alfonso Arau (LIKE WATER FOR CHOCOLATE.) 60 years after its original production, Welles\' vision has finally been allowed to shine through.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Dolby Digital Stereo - EnglishAdditional Release Material: Featurette - Behind The ScenesInteractive Features: Interactive Menus Scene AccessText/Photo Galleries: Biographies Filmographies Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005.
