    Stunning image quality, better than any video formats and current digital images.

    This is an excellent DVD. Paints a wonderful portrait of times gone by. Nostalgia in its very essence. Seek it out.

    Wilus 1969 should check out OSS TALES, a DVD from the three dubyus (dull stop) media-generation dotcom. You can find out about Little Willie from the trailer
