MAGNIFICENT AMBERSONS 2001 DVD

Movie Description:
After 60 years, Welles` vision of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Booth Tarkington novel has finally been realized. Using the original shooting script, directorAlfonso Arau and an extraordinary cast featuring James Cromwell, Madeleine Stowe, and Gretchen Mol, have re-filmed every scene according to Welles`directions. The result is a haunting story of a wealthy Midwestern family`s struggle to adapt to the rapidly changing world at the turn of the 20thcentury, and the long-overdue restoration of a missing piece of America`s cinematic heritage.
