lovely 1920 X 1080 H.264 1080p video at 3500k video bitrate
dual audio track choices
track 1: English 384k audio Dolby 5.1
track 2: Italian 384k audio Dolby Stereo
Although I didn't mean for it to turn out this way, there are hardcoded Italian subs on
I think we could perhaps get away with it for this movie which is mainly of Italian interest I believe.
In the future we might post other language versions of this movie along with a main English track,
however we need to be mindful of the seeding commitment that is needed as some language options
aren't well enough supported we find. For example our French language included movies used to do
tremendously well in previous years.
However our recent effort for example with Victor Victoria bluray convert in which we added a French
audio track from DVD (no bluray discs are available at present with the French language included) met
with a lukewarm reception it seems with few takers and no seeding support from anyone else thus far.
How sad. For now we are still planning on an English - German - French version of Glengarry Glen Ross
(we are awaiting the German audio from a German bluray disc that should be arriving soon) along with an
English - Italian - Spanish version of the same movie ("Americani Glengarry Glen Ross" is what the Italian
and Spanish audio version bluray offering is called (note: its 1hr 36 minutes long rather than 1hr 40 minutes
as the standard version is). - and we will have it soon for you) When its mainly dialogue that's involved in
the movie we mainly make use of 128k non English version audio tracks (if thats all the space we have
considering the overall file size and the number of languages involved) as they work wonderfully enough
with nice enough stereo sound, Sometimes thats all the bitrate there is on the disc for some language
options especially when it comes to secondary language option tracks taken off a DVD.
We have just finished converting the bluray disc of The Remains of the day which includes
192k Dolby AC3 Italian German French and Spanish audio tracks along with the main 448k English track
and commentary track offering.
Also, we have just received the bluray disc of "Saturday Night Fever (1977)" in ENG-ITA and hopefully it will
posted be soon now. There's also Reds (Warren Beatty and Diane Keaton) has arrived which we will soon
post in languages including Italian and English as well as German French and Spanish we expect.
Now to the movie at hand:
Goodfellas is a very popular mob movie with many and is often on one of our TV channels
throughout the year.
It has one of my most favourite actors - Mr Robert Deniro - my other most favourite actor is Mr. Al Pacino
of Godfather fame (we have Il Padrino bluray (Italian - English version of the Godfather I on the way from
Italy to post for you by the way in a Trilogy version offering of a torrent - right now we have a nice enough 720p
Godfather Trilogy torrent already seeding for you). These are two of the greatest men on earth in my own view.
Goodfellas has some troubling scenes depicting violence that is not usually
seen so graphically played out in movies by normal men.
Martin Scorsese the movie Director says (in the supplementary video included on the bluray disc) that he
believes that he is displaying "what is an evil in us" through this movie.
Of course he cannot speak for all men in this regard or in this manner I
submit.
Men who have brutal strength and have good character are to be envied as the best men can be -
in that they have strength to protect that which is good - including their own well being and good
nature over time, and yet never be prone to evil if their conscience engages well in that they have
been exposed to the right teachings to get them to act with what they know in their hearts to be the
right way to be good and fair to others on the earth.
Men who lack this good nature - especially if they have evil hearts will always need to be feared as a
menace on the earth and it will take good men of strength of character and spirit and sheer strength to
help us be rid of them for the sake of all that wish to remain good and safe from such evil.
I believe that the men of Italy and even Spain in many cases have remained great men of the greatest
character and good nature with the ability to care and love their own in the most genuine manner on the earth.
Their strength has kept them saner and healthier than those who succumb to abuse and cruelty in their midst
from not succeeding in stamping it out as individuals or as a community of which they are a part.
The best of men should in the future come together to care for the best of people in their care meaning of course
the best of women who need their protection and genuine care in order to exist into a better future. Good men
must be made aware of the beauty of the nature of the best of our gals on the planet and seek to nurture their
spirit and help them stay with their good nature and ability to care in return. See my review of the movie "When a man
loves a woman" starring Meg Ryan and Andy Garcia for more of how the best of the men
I speak of (in this case from Italy and Spain that is) can achieve more happiness amidst such beauty if only we
can choose to care adequately enough to be deserving of it.
Enjoy the movie and please seed for the community
