I like Diva, the French movie, very much. I saw it in the theater when it was new. I'm not sure I've seen it since then.So I splurged on a fairly expensive ($22) DVD from Fox Lorber.
I should have checked the comments on amazon. This is awful. The picture is OK, not great, but OK. The sound, however, is constantly varying in pitch like a defective turntable. The French dialogue is almost completely blurred into indistinct mumbles.
I never sell DVDs. But I'm selling this back for the few dollars it will bring. It's unwatchable.
I know there is another version out on DVD. Again, I should've checked amazon before buying this.
