Stranger Than Paradise | R2G |
The MGM Region 1 release, according to reviews I have read, appears to have problematic audio. It includes an edited version of Tom Jarmusch's film (cut to half its original length). The German Region 2 release from Kinowelt appears to have better video and audio than the Region 1 and includes the short film in full, along with a Jarmusch filmography and trailers for several of his films. It is presented at an aspect ratio of 1.78:1, 16x9 enhanced. I wouldn't be surprised if our release is from the same source. Regions 2 and 4 are of better quality than the Region 1, although both have an incorrect film ratio. I haven't found any mention of digital tape dropout on the Kinowelt, so would place Region 2 above ours. |
