...higher-quality transfer, offer more extras and - dare we suspect? - make a buck. A comparison of the original one-disc edition of Kurosawa's 1954 epic and its recent three-disc release shows that sometimes more really is more. Dividing the 3hr.27min. film between two discs allows a much crisper and richer image and a greatly enlarged gallery of extras. Those include a two-hour video conversation from 1993 between Kurosawa and Japanese director Nagisa Oshima, documentaries on the making of the film and on Kurosawa's influences, and a booklet with genuinely useful essays by Kurosawa scholars and tributes...

...almost have to degrade the image to make it more real. If you take a digital photo and I take one on film, there's just no way you're going to compete with the humanity that I can create from my little Hasselblad. Yours will be smoother, crisper, perfect in every way, and mine will be grainy, but you would definitely grab my picture over the digital...

In terms of tweaking the romantic comedy to accommodate modern notions of love, “Imagine” is rather sub-par.
