Default Whodunnit

This is a question about the most recent DVD release of Rene Clair's great Agatha Christie whodunnit from 1945.

Release history as far as I know is :

VCI (Year 2000) Poor
Madacy (Year ?) Poor
Image (Year 2001) Good
Orbit (2006) ????

Does anyone know if the Orbit 2006 release is a good print at last?
I have the VCI version and the picture is patchy and variable, as is the sound...just wondered if the Orbit version is woth getting.
Any ideas ?


I'm as mad as hell and I'm not gonna take it anymore!

I presume you are talking about And Then There Were None. The Orbit version is apparently better that the VCI one according to some online reviews.

I wish I had claws.

Cheers Bats. Think I will invest in the orbit version, so.
I love the pairing of Walter Huston and Barry Fitzgerald in this movie and the old feel of the house. Have you seen it?
