PLOT SYNOPSIS<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

A sailor (JAMES CAAN) falls in love with a prostitute (MARSHA MASON) but finds it difficult to cope when she resumes her former lifestyle after they are married. When they first meet over a game of pool, she takes him home, where he gets to know her young son (KIRK CALLOWAY), and romance quickly blossoms between the grown-ups. Once hitched, she carries on as before and the sailor prevails upon an old navy colleague for help.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Twilight Time releases Cinderella Liberty<\/em><\/strong> onto Blu-ray presented in its original 2.35 widescreen aspect ratio and given a 1080p high-definition transfer. For the most part, it\u2019s a fine looking video with decently sharp detail, mainly for close-up objects and black levels are fairly deep and you can see some of the natural film grain, and some specs do crop up, though nothing overly distracting.<\/p>\n

The DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 track (and the mono one for that matter) sounds pretty good outputting clear dialogue which encompasses probably 90% of this film with some depth showing for various scenes, such as early on at the pool scene.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Overall, Cinderella Liberty<\/em><\/strong> is a well acted, if not uneven, drama-romance with two great performances by James Caan and Marsha Mason who did receive an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress. This Blu-ray release by Twilight Time has good video and audio transfers and so-so (but above average for TT) bonus features.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
