Brand new factory sealed vhs tape is perfect for old school televisions as the image will fill your square frame. The uncompressed audio is more robust than its digital counterpart. Pop-n-go retro video also has no fussy menus to contend with either. Robert Redford's intelligent, entertaining, and morally complex film about the TV game show scandals of the late '50s is his most accomplished work to date. At the center of the film is Charles Van Doren (Ralph Fiennes), an intellectual, golden boy who dethrones Herbert Stempel (John Turturro), the reigning champion of the rigged "Twenty One". The program's sponsor felt Stempel, a nerdy Jewish grad's everyman qualities were wearing thin and wanted a more polished image, which they found in handsome, sophisticated Van Doren. Federal investigator Goodwin (Rob Morrow) suspects Van Doren's reign is a sham and sets out to expose him as a fraud. Acting is of the highest caliber with Fiennes, Turturro, and Morrow all giving beautiful performances. Notable among supporting cast is Paul Scofield as Van Doren's Pulitzer prize-winning father. With strong script and gorgeous lensing, this modern Faust story is a brilliant reflection on corporate greed, class rivalry, and the corrupt power of fake television.
