DVD Reviews of The Family Way

DVD Review: Most definitely WIDESCREEN!
Summary: 5 Stars

Don't know what the reviewer below is talking about, this is most definitely a widescreen presentation. I have viewed this as letterboxed on a 4x3 screen and as a full 16x9 presentation on a 40" lcd. Sounds like the reviewer has his dvd player or flat screen on the wrong setting.
Actually, either way it doesn't matter. Given the rarity of this title: the fact that it is rarely on tv and has never been released here in the U.S. all these years on vhs despite it's pedigree, I'd accept any legit version at this point.
A smart, funny, unforgettable drama that entertains while it quietly builds to a powerful emotional ending that resonates long after the film is over. And it has the kind of ensemble acting that you just don't see in films all that much anymore. Every character is memorable and all the performances are dead-on perfect with special kudos to John Mills and Marjorie Rhodes who will make you laugh as they quietly break your heart.
Sure the sexual mores of the planet have changed, but people haven't. And the film is ultimately about families and their relationships to one another, and in that regard the film is timeless.
This edition has a soundtrack that has "enhanced audio" which according to my ears means the dialogue is up front, cleaner and clearer than any other version I've seen. The sometimes heavy British accents are now totally understandable. What it also does is put Paul McCartney's surprisingly appropriate and unforgettable score a little too much in the backround. Ah...you win some , you lose some.
Still when all is said and done, an opportunity for one to finally have this great movie on dvd.
