My Darling Clementine

The sound on the version of Clementine available on ITunes is hideous. I am not exaggerating. I see from the reviews that this problem has been noted before. But it hasn’t been fixed as of this writing.

Read the rest of the reviews for this film. The audio track is bizarre and the music is layered and barely recognizable in the current iTunes version. I had to check several times to make sure I didn't have four or five different tabs open - nope, it was just the extremely poor audio.

The story is pure nonsense and is totally at odds with history as was clearly known at the time. Considering that an elderly Wyatt Earp actually told the story to the young John Ford directly, there is no excuse for the nonsense. One can tack things on, such as the ficticious Clementine and one expects a few diversions from fact for dramatic purposes, but this is a story of pure make-believe in which Ford inserted famous names. The audio is terrible, with truly bizarre filtering. The weird unsynchronized music is definitely strange, particularly at the end.

This is a classic, wonderful cast, not true to life story. The only problem is my rental had some sync problems with some of the music tracks, I also found the dialog too low in places but still a great movie!
