I avoided this one after reading several reviews critical of this particular transfer & restoration, and the conclusion that it was much less than expected when compared to Criterion's usual effort. Based on your informed, 1st hand, opinion I may have to seek this Criterion release out for myself.Your impressions are greatly appreciated. For the sake of context I'll link one of the several published reviews of this release which dissuaded me from purchasing this title at the time it was released. FTR though, as I haven't seen this DVD yet, I'll reserve judgment. As for the film itself, I thought it was a visually stunning fable when I saw it televised about 20 odd years ago, even though not especially impressed by the biblical theme in Stephen Vincent Benet's short story.
