The transfer copy job is excellent based on the source copy now not really available. No real compression artefacts which is helped by the film being in B&W and a running length under 90 minutes
So any compression just to have the movie fit on the disc is extremely minor.
As to the film, it's a solid little western. Joel McCrea is one of those actors who look as if they give nothing to their performance but in fact give much (not unlike Gary Cooper and Clint Eastwood early in their careers). He certainly adds gravitas and the support players don't lack for anything in their performance.
Not a John Ford or Raoul Walsh by any degree but good solid matinee entertainment to while away those late afternoons.
Good seller to deal with, I enjoy the movie Many thanks
Hi delivery was great and well wrapped so dvd was safe..
I’ve just finished watching the film and thank you for good quality dvd
Hello! The problem was the audio. you were kind enough to try sending it again, but it was very low quality and no subtitles, thus the 1-star review. When I said that the quality was too low to really watch the film, I requested a refund. I got no further response and that's where the communication stopped. That's the disappointing truth.
Thanks, Chehalis Hegner
Wonderful to find such a favorite film and it even played on my DVD player.
I enjoyed it as though seeing for the first time. Wonderful playback, clear and audible. Well done and thank you so much!

So far,so good!I started watching the first disc and all seems good.I hope the rest of the discs work as well.I have been looking for this series since watching it on Netflix.Thank you!!
Glitchy and blurry. Would like a refund. Do not buy from this company
Great quality fast shipping would buy again
Great Western, nice twist at the end ,didn't expect that to happen, plenty of action & tension
As always, a good quality movie. This time I made no mistakes and all the movies came in in one go. This is probably the first one I will enjoy on the flight over to Canada. (and a few times while living in Canada
Movie skips and freezes up. Not good quality at all
Glorious Technicolor
The Adventures Of Robin Hood, Simply put, this film is the best version of Robin Hood and one of the best adventure films ever made. It’s the golden age of Hollywood at it’s best. Errol Flynn is Robin Hood for me, dashing, roughish, athletic and Olivia deHavilland the most beautiful and charming Marian. Add to that Basil Rathbone and Claude Rains as Sir Guy and Prince John, two of Hollywood’s best character actors. 102 minutes of pure fantasy from a creative team totally on top of it’s game, not forgetting the marvellous Korngold score!
OK, all well and good, but the HD DVD version I bought this week was restored using a process invented by someone at Warners called Ultra Resolution that digitally re-aligns the three strip Technicolor film to the original state it was in when shot in 1938. The result is amazing, the detail is such that you can count the chain mail rings and see the embroidery on the costumes. As for the colour you can see why they used to call it Glorious Technicolor, it’s like a painting brought to life. Stunning. Even my gf, who normally won’t watch anything made before about 1980, came in when the film was just starting and ended up watching the whole movie with me and enjoyed it!
An absolute classic
If you’ve never seen this film or perhaps are of a certain age and consider this too old for you then you are missing a classic. This film does not desire to be nor is it historically correct. What it is, is simply a wonderful entertainment playing the Robin Hood legend in full. Every character is rich and the adventure you are invited to follow is wonderful. Errol Flynn is at his physical and romantic best. De Havilland is perfect as the demure yet quietly sensual Maid Marion, and as to Basil Rathbone! What a wonderful villain he portrays. Please younger film buffs see this film and enjoy it as it plays. You are in for a real treat and a fantastic adventure!
