Yves Saint Laurent - His Life and Times/5 Avenue Marceau 75116 Paris

"Having been in the fashion world for more than two decades, this DVD is the best example of what the Couture World is all about, perhaps a vanishing art but Yves was one of the last great real couture designers and this movie demonstrates that to the best ability. For anyone interested in Fashion and art in general, this is perhaps one of the most interesting documents on how the true couture work, men and women with true dedication to the art of drapping and hand work that produces the small miracles in beadwork, and all elements that made a couture garment different from any other. True understanding of the way a dress should look and how it flows like air. I recommend it highly to anyone going into the fashion world or already in the fashion world. "

"Don't buy this. Seriously. Someone is bound to release a better version. This is PAN AND SCAN, cropped at 1:33, and seems to be transferred from some sort of used tape...Like a 3/4 inch VHS. There are visible tape flutters and wrinkles throughout the film. And no it's NOT the print. The film is fine. It's the transfer. cheap, cheap, cheap. The compression is abysmal (notice the obvious scan lines on the titles) and the sound is piss poor. How is it possible this is the only way this film is available in the US? Disgraceful."

"I just wanted to write this review and warn people to save their money. My friend bought this dvd (thank god it wasn't me!) and we were both disappointed to see that it was a horrible print, badly transferred. This dvd is disgraceful, but the movie itself gets 5 stars, of course. Just thought i'd let you know: avoid this incredibly lousy dvd of polanski's classic film at all costs!!! if you decide to go against my advice and buy it, well... I tried to warn you! i don't usually write reviews of dvds, preferring instead to focus on the film in question, but this was one instance where i felt it would be unfair not to say 'caveat emptor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!' if you have a region-free dvd player, get the anchor bay uk version (available through amazon.co.uk) for a much nicer edition."

Indochine

"Perfectly cast Catherine Deneuve plays a wealthy French woman born and raised in Indochina prior to the Communist takeover of what becomes Vietnam in 1955. She has adopted a native girl as her daughter, and the tragedy begins to play itself out as the child grows up and becomes part of the revolution.Lushly filmed, giving a realistic picture of Hanoi and the countryside before decades of war and destruction decimated Vietnam."
