Although I haven't watched the whole film, the little bits I've seen of the Psycho 4K Ultra HD disc are also superior to the 1080p releases. It has so much more clarity and contrast than the Blu-ray disc, and the HDR accentuates the black levels and detail.
I'll probably buy It's a Wonderful Life before Christmas and really want Citizen Kane. |
Won't the quality on the relatively modern Spielberg film be because of improvements in filming and cameras?
I know it's black and white but you can't judge a modern (ish) film with one from the thirties or forties. Even by the sixties filming and cameras had improved drastically from the forties.
I don't know, perhaps i'm wrong. When you watch
It's a Wonderful Life in 4K you'll have to tell us if it's the same image quality as
Schindler's List.
