It should be illegal to sell such a poor quality DVD

"An excellant A+++ performance by Ms. Tyson which was ruined by the worst quality DVD I have every seen. 50% of the scenes were so black as to been unable to distinguish the characters ( it was like trying to watch radio) and the other 50% were washed out, full of glare, and unfocused. This was truly a diaster. My advice DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS DVD... WAIT FOR A BETTER TRANSFER"
Poor transfer-wonderful drama

"This is an important drama with a great performance by Ms. Tyson. Unfortunately the film? videotape? from which the DVD was made was in very poor condition I must assume. The colors are bleached out and the picture is very fuzzy throughout. If the DVD was made from the only materials in existence I can understand. Otherwise let's make a new DVD!"

A woman called Moses - in service of Freedom

"I purchased this DVD some years ago to learn more about the history, trails and tribulations of the black man, and saw it just now, again. If you are looking for a blue-ray rendition - well perhaps you might have to wait as long as I had to wait, until my son got his 2 new front teeth back in! This is a historical film. I see negative remarks related to the film's reproducution qualities. Yes, they could be better. Perhaps one day we get a better, clearer, sharper version. But however misty, murky or clear the film's repro will be, it pales to the message it gives. A historical voice, the voice of mankind, an ennobling desire to be free under any circumstances. FREE. Looking back at history, various people and nations were made into slaves, but the desire for freedom never dies.
I have not seen all of Ms Tyson's films, but would think that this film is her crowning role.
