"Josef Kilián" shares the disc with "The White Dove," a film by František Vláčil.

"Is this a dagger which I see before me?"

Shakespeare, William. The Tragedy of Macbeth. Vol. XLVI, Part 4.
The Harvard Classics. New York: P.F. Collier & Son, 1909-14.

Or just the result of automated dirt, debris, scratches, splices, and warps removal? I'm referring to the partially obliterated vertical features in exhibits A, B & C below - evidence of some "Tramline-B-Gone" plug-in going haywire, perhaps?

Like, kudos to Second Run for releasing this forgotten little gem on an English-friendly DVD, but whoever did the clean-up (not necessarily SR) should either refrain from using automated tools or do some QC afterwards. Howgh!

*difference between channels is -89.75 dB (0.00 %)
