Circus World (1964)

Asia exclusive DVD (NTSC/Region 0). 1964 film starring John Wayne, Claudia Cardinale, & Rita Hayworth. Directed by Henry Hathaway. Garry's Trading. 2004. Album Description

Buy the OTHER version!!!

From all of the complaints about the quality of THIS Korean import release, may I suggest you check Amazon for availability of the alternate Korean version. I just purchased it, and it has an excellent fully synchronized clean sound track, presented in its original wide-screen cinamascope, and transferred from a fairly clean original print. I only saw some minor dust during the opening credits. Maybe some day Hollywood will do a much deserved full restoration on this circus classic, throw in some bonus features, and even English sub-titles for the hearing impaired and those who have a problem with Claudia Cardinale's Itallian dialect. But until then, the alternate Korean version is probably your best way to view this classic! Region "0" NTSC is playable in US and Canada. May 26, 2008

Awful copy of Circus World

Circus WorldThis dvd isn't even worth the small amount of money I paid for it. I would have paid a better price but this was all that was available to me. The quality of the sound, plus the speaking was out of alignment with the mouths moving. Over all I was displeased with this product. What is so terrible that we here in USA have far more ablity to re-product such great classics but don't. It makes no sense to me that we can't buy GOOD quality producted dvd's of great movie classics. How about doing much more about this! We are going to loose such fine entertaining movies such as this one! K. M. Kemp May 5, 2008

Better than no copy at all

The copy of Circus World I had taped off the air more than 15 years ago was really starting to wear out and I was really glad to find this DVD. When I got it, I noticed the Chineese text underneath all of the English on the cover. I found the DVD had sub-titles you couldn't turn off, only an OK picture and sound that was out of phase. At times the audio sounded like it was at the bottom of a barrel. Since I can't find anything better out there, I'll keep it, but "let the buyer beware" on this one. It's really only better than no copy at all of what is otherwise a really good John Wayne movie. December 19, 2007

What's the delay? Get this movie on US DVD

I recently found out that John Wayne's Circus World is available on DVD in Europe, but not in the US. Could someone please explain that to me? Almost every other Duke film is available but this one is being withheld for some reason. I have never seen this movie because it is rarely shown on TV and even rarer to find on video tape. Get this movie on US DVD so I won't have to buy a European DVD of it. It is ironic that the movies starring the most American of actors are not all available in America. Why do Europeans have the privelege of watching this movie? European distributors are making the profits that could have been for American distributors. That alone should be motivation to get this movie on DVD here. September 2, 2006
