The Story Of Ricky
Laser Paradise Eastern Edition Germany RC2
Hong Kong Legends UK RC2

   

The Pan&Scan full screen transfer from Laser Paradise is serverely cropped vertically. The picture is overcontrasted and hazy with digital artifacts, color bleeding, color noise and edge enhancement present. Detail resolution is acceptable. The (uncleaned) source material was in a bad shape. Alas the far superior Hong Kong Legends transfer is presented in a cropped 1,73:1 aspect ratio (original ratio being 1,85:1). Smearing and edge enhancement is evident occasionally but the anamorphic picture is reproduced in good detail (for a 70ies Hong Kong movie) thanks to careful restoration work. Contrast and color reproduction are satisfactory.
