Question about item .......2007-03-18
I have not opened the DVD and did not no how to contact you. It says it is dubbed in spanish which I do not understand because it is a spanish made film. So I have been concerned about opening it to see if actully is dubbed or the authentic actors speaking. Do you recommend I open it to see of would you rather I just return it? Please let me know. I have rated this item as 5 stars because this program insists I give it a rating. I am certain it is in perfect condition just uncertain if it is what I want or need as I use movied to teach culture in my Spanish classes. Thank you,
Linda
Bootlegged NTSC TV shot with a blurred lens.......2006-06-13
I agree with the other reviewers about the awful quality of this DVD. They didn't mention the high noise floor and bathroom resonance of the sound track.
Another gullible consumer.......2006-04-20
I too was duped by this incredibly poor quality, obviously bootlegged copy of Cria! I was excited by the possiblity of a DVD version of this wonderful film, but it certainly was too good to be true, thanks to "Miracle Pictures" whoever they are. I really wish I had taken the time to read the reviews before purchasing. I won't make that mistake twice.
I am shocked that Amazon should still be selling such an item, with complaints dating back as far as 2004. PLEASE TAKE IT OFF YOUR CATALOGUE. Someone should do something to prevent this trade in such garbage.
PS. I had to give this 1 star, but really I give it a big 0.
WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT!!.......2006-03-27
I had long looked forward to seeing this superb Spanish movie on DVD. "Cria" {1976} is a masterpiece in the political movie genre, a telling critique of the baleful effects of Franco's Fascist regime on Spanish society as seen through the eyes of a little girl. Ana Torrent, at only age 9, delivers one of the best performances by a child actor I have ever seen.
But who is responsible for this cheap, amaterish DVD production? It is much worse than the 1988 VHS edition, with washed-out and grainy textures and with the subtitles virtually unreadable.
It is a disaster. Carlos Saura-the writer-director, Ana Torrent and the other excellent makers and performers of this great movie deserve so much better.
Maybe Criterion will sometime give this great movie the care and attention it deserves, like they did recently for the great 1952 French film "Forbidden Games".

A Region 2/PAL DVD with removable English subtitles, and excellent picture quality, is available from many sellers in Europe under the Spanish title "Cría Cuervos". DVDGO is one such seller, find them via your favorite search engine. Don't settle for a terrible quality bootleg.

Absolute cinematic classic.......2007-02-21
For anyone who is looking for this film, this is the definitive DVD version as far as i know. I believe this is the official Spainish DVD. The qulity is excellent, no faults. You do need a multi-regional DVD player if you're in the US or not in Region 2.
This film should be better known because it's a classic and a masterpiece. It should be shown in Cinema classes, or at least Spanish cinema. Anyone who enjoyed Ana Torrent in "Spirit of the Beehive" will definetely enjoy her in this performance, she does not look much older, but a little. She does more things, feels more emotions and has a much more developed character - IMO. This movie is deep, and shot in a very creative style. The script is perfect. Anyway, this film is incredible. Very highly recommended.
