Viewing Notes

Been so long since I saw this, it was almost like watching it new. Granted I knew all of the big moments, but the structure and shots were just fantastic to see again. Part of it might be the transfer on the Blu. I don’t think I’ve ever seen this so clear and strong. I’d love to catch this in a theater sometime, it would be amazing.
