Well there's all sorts of examples in NOSFERATU and AGUIRRE...David M. wrote:Which "sparkling noise" scenes are you referring to, so we can be sure we're on the same page?
The worst scene in NOSFERATU is when Jonathan is instructed by Renfield to go on the trip.
Between the two there's a banister that sparkles (snows) like crazy.
But...since all the BDs have this I assume it was a flaw in the recording.
So let's take the opening scene with the Mexican cadavers...on the BFI the light reflections actually sparkle a little where it's been cleaned up in the SHOUT!
BTW~what's wrong with the JAWS BD as Spielberg himself approved it I believe.
I'm now thinking that many of these older films are just not meant for BluRay.
Like a Seurat painting one needs to stand back to see the bigger picture much like sitting in a theater.
So if a plate in a Art book only shows a close-up all we see are dots.
