I just received three videotapes from Foothill Video. Thanks to all who responded to my question about the quality of their tapes. Here is my experience: All three tapes are of slightly below the quality one would expect for the types of films I ordered (Intolerance, Salt of the Earth and the Bicycle Thief). All three are watchable, but the quality is not best available for any of the three. (I've seen better prints/dubs of all three.) The image looks more like it has suffered from generations of video dubbing rather than from a bad original print. My advice would be that if you just want to watch the movie and you can't rent it locally, then Foothill is a good option ($7.95 per tape for most U.S. films and $14.95 for foreign), but if you want a good archival copy or have a use that requires the best available image, you should probably look for a tape elsewhere and expect to pay twice to four times as much. The address for Foothill Video is: P.O. Box 547 Tujunga, CA 91043 (Phone: 818-353-8591) I'd be curious about the experiences of others who order from Foothill. They do have a large collection of foreign and silent films and I'm thinking of ordering more, so I'd like to know with regard to specific titles which of their prints/dubs may be of especially high or low quality.
