*by K***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 August 2014*

This version suffers from very poor sound quality which exaggerates the now annoying vibrato the female singers considered to be fashionable at the time the film was made.  The DVD comes over as more harsh sounding than my old VHS tape.That said, the second half of the film is very moving and a reflection of the potential quality and strength of this musical when well performed.  PBS in the USA televised a performance by the New Jersey State Opera some years ago, which was the best performance I have seen.  Sadly I have never seen this version available in video format.  If it languishes in a vault somewhere, it should be rescued and put on sale.I find the complete CD version recorded some years back, infamous for including the n word from the original lyrics, too stuffy and lacking emotion.  It is of academic interest only and lacks the "soul" inherent in the story on which the musical and movie was based.Thus sadly this DVD seems to be all that is available in English of what remains as a record of a potentially great musical drama.  Only the second half of the film brings this off successfully.  I hope somebody produces a restored version of the film with the sound track cleaned up.

    My favourite film!
  

*by C***T on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 March 2021*

The quality of this transfer is truly astounding, bright vibrant colours and even a simulated stereo soundtrack - along with the original mono. Don't listen to the commentary it is just a list of people he met in Hollywood and no details about the film, you know "That scene took us ages to light" etc. However worth every penny if you like the music. The recently issued Blu Ray of the 1930s version is also worth buying. By the way the download quality, despite saying HD is not a patch on the disk. This shows that "buying" a film by download will never replace a circle of plastic!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A wonderful restoration!
  

*by F***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 September 2021*

Showboat is a spectacular early 1950's MGM musical. This long overdue restoration is incredible, excellent picture quality and audio. The film is 70 years old, but there's not a scratch, flicker or dust mark to be seen. Superb work by the restorers! Like all musicals of this era it won't appeal to everyone. The underlying storyline, that of the effects of racial injustice is very unusual for the era and handled differently to how it would be today.
