{"product_id":"0025192052323","title":"Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid","description":"\"Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid's status as one of the least-known Steve Martin comedies makes this bare-bones, yet impressively transferred DVD curious in light of the fact that The Jerk still languishes on the format as a full-frame-only edition. Dead Men was an experiment in editing old movie footage with newly shot footage in order to create a new story. The non-anamorphic 1.85:1 digital transfer is another example of quality mastering by Universal (no matter how obscure the film) that proves it is fully committed to the format. Shot in black-and-white, the clearer, sharper picture looks great and blends well with the old footage. The transitions aren't entirely seamless, which is part of the comic effect. The two-channel mono soundtrack isn't exactly impressive, but for a film meant to invoke the old detective films of the 1940s, it suffices. Some production notes and a trailer are the only supplements. While Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid may not seem like a likely release for DVD above some other films, this edition is good enough to preserve the film for a while longer.\"","brand":"STUDIO DISTRIBUTION SERVS LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47084777668848,"sku":"0025192052323","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/0025192052323_p0.jpg?v=1763783050","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/0025192052323","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
