One hardly needs to mention that these are four of the finest portrayals on film; the characterizations are beyond description in their depth and power, and they (and the fine direction) are responsible for the shattering impact of the film. The fact that this is the the only DVD version avaialble is lamentable, since the visual image is cut down; the copying is a bit grainy; and the sound is sometimes as if from the bottom of a well. Until there is a refurbishment of the original (long overdue on such a masterpiece!) we have to settle for this. This film is now fifty years old, and due for restoration. Hepburn is at the top of her art here, not to be missed, but the other great stars (Jason Robards, Dean Stockwell, and the superb Ralph Richardson) match her instensity blow for blow. A must-see! In spite of the DVD's shortcomings, I had to have this in my film collection; serious students of American drama and/or film need this.Read full review
