Yeah, it's featured in this article, along with plenty of others that I'm guilty of misquoting https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.b...n-saying-wrong

With digital fix ( who also recently gave stunning marx brothers restorations 7 for video) I think there may also be a bit of nervousness as some of the denziens of places like bluerage.com (copyright stephen ) can be a bit full on when they disagree and who wants the hassle. Personally if I stick up a review anywhere i'm hesitant to score out of 10 as its pretty arbitrary. |

Possibly the stupidest score I've ever seen was 3/10 for "picture quality" on White of the Eye. This is a state-of-the-art scan off the original camera neg, and looks pretty much exactly as it was supposed to look, allowing for the differences in media (I saw it in 35mm back in the day, so can confirm this first hand). In other words, in terms of "picture quality" it should by rights be a minimum of 8 or 9 - you might have a few nitpicks here and there, but in all other respects it's bang on. But this reviewer didn't like the use of heavy grain, high contrast and desaturated colours in the flashback sequences, despite this being an artistic decision that was spelled out in both the extras and the booklet, and decided that because of these shots alone (which only amount to a small proportion of the film as a whole), the "picture quality" deserved low marks. But he wasn't reviewing the quality of the disc, he was reviewing the original cinematography! Arrow actually complained about that one, and got a mealy-mouthed response that yes it probably wasn't very fair but the reviewer wasn't being paid, so what could the editor do? |
