Love's brand new DVD release has arrived

i love love · 06-17-2005, 06:47 AM

Guess what I just received via the Korean post?

The DVD snap case (shown above) has a greenish glossy outer slipcover with a sort of "postal" type string that secures the flap shut.

Special features:

Korean Trailer
Interview
Making film
Music Video
Psychological Test
Love is

If this release is similar to "If Only" then it may not even have any music video. I'll try to have a review very shortly, though someone else may easily beat me to it.

Running time - 112 minutes
Anamorphic Widescreen 1.85:1
Region 3 - NTSC

Watch out, most US dvd players won't play this disc.

DVDfromKorea is super fast shipping. You even get a tiny discount if you use your PayPal account.

OK, my small review. The movie actually runs 95 minutes. They include a music video (Something Stupid - sung by the Sinatras), they include a very small interview with Love (interpersed with on-the-set footage), then a small "making of" segment, you get the Korean trailer and a small picture gallery and ends with some kind of very short Korean quiz. I suppose if you add all these extras to the running time you may wind up with 112 minutes or so.

Now to the meat of the matter. The movie is fairly slow. It has one of those English plots that creeps along. Characters are fairly subdued. Love shows lots of talent throughout, and her accent is almost tolerable (almost). Another grown-up role, it's not hardly as good as If Only, but If Only was such an unusual type of movie. This movie is primarily about relationships, so was If Only, but If Only added the whole time warp scenario, with a simple twist at the end. The Truth About Love is pretty straightforward in it's storyline. There's a small interesting angle, though the movie still winds up where you expect it at the end, typical. The one truly annoying thing I noticed throughout is the dialog track seems to have been completely re-dubbed or possibly put through some kind of sound processor. Lets put it this way, it's no George Lucas THX soundtrack.
