There's finally something else for me to complain about in the film world. Pathe recently restored Children of Paradise, and then they botched the transfer badly onto Blu-ray. The video quality is getting some mixed to negative reviews, and it will never be fixed. This film is considered one of the cultural landmarks of French cinema, and the transfer onto Blu-ray is simply a disappointment. It treason against the French people IMO. Criterion had no choice but to use the transfer, and it will never be recalled and redone. I feel empty inside and borderline depressed because of this, and I want the people at Pathe to suffer horribly for making me miserable for the rest of my life. I will never be whole ever again.
