Rod Gist Blu-rays

Buddy Buddy (1981)

Director: Billy Wilder

DVD

Best Video:

Spanish Region 0 PAL DVD or original VHS and Beta MGM releases. There is very low quality streaming on Roku

Additional Info:

This film is cursed with only an early 80's tape master in 4:3 and a letterbox standard def master that was apparently made and abandoned without even a Laserdisc or DVD release. The only passable widescreen version is the Spanish PAL DVD which is low quality and noisy using this abandoned standard def master but sped up due to PAL. It uses the title Aqui, un Amigo. This film cries out for a proper transfer to happen at least once.
