grande fainder... questo cortometraggio è veramente meritevole, e consiglio a tutti i cultori dell'animazione che visitano la page di procurarselo, qualora non lo conoscessero!
Mitico!
Qualcuno sa se esiste in dvd la versione non centrata?
Visto che si tratta di uno dei primi corti della Disney in Cinemascope sarebbe bello averlo..."integro".
Io so che è contenuto nel Disney Treasures celebrated shorts http://www.amazon.com/Walt-Disney-Treasures-Rarities-Celebrated/dp/B000ATQYUG/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1199815173&sr=1-8
ma la mia conoscenza in dvd si ferma lì. Amazon dice Aspect Ratio 1.33:1 :(
Comunque ho un avi in buona qualità: http://www.horrorvacui.it/temp/Toot%20Whistle%20Plunk%20and%20Boom%20(1953).avi
