The Wonderful World of the Brothers Grimm - 1962 1080p PAL-Rip.mp4

The Wonderful World of the Brothers Grimm (1962) is one of the only two narrative movies ever filmed in the three-camera Cinerama process, the other being How the West Was Won (1962). Unlike West, Grimm was never given a proper restoration and Bluray release. The biggest, most ambitious film of producer/director George Pal, and the most neglected. Pal's movies, from Destination Moon (1950) to Doc Savage (1975) have long been available on video, DVD and TV syndication, all except Grimm. It has rarely been easy to find, usually in pan-and-scan video and cut for length on TV, and always in poor-quality prints.

Here is a fan edit of Grimm, in its full uncut length and full original 2.55:1 widescreen. Its running time is 124 minutes, 5 shorter than its original 129, because the source file was in PAL video (which has a frame rate of 25 fps that makes 24 fps movies 4 percent shorter). This version has the best quality of picture and sound to be found anywhere, even better than its latest DVD. It is enlarged for clarity, but it is not in true HD and its quality leaves much to be desired. Don't expect too much. Watch it for its production values and its all-star cast. Grimm is being shared to keep its legacy alive.
