Somebody at Warner Home Video must have liked this movie. That's the only way to explain why or how Delmer Daves' Spencer's Mountain -- which used to get dumped into edited afternoon time slots on television, in panned-and-scanned form -- has arrived on DVD in a handsome edition like this. Starting with the movie itself, the 2.35-to-1 aspect ratio beautifully captures the original movie's Panavision aspect ratio, which means that those of us who weren't around to see it in 1963 can, at last, appreciate the time and expense that Daves went to, shooting on location in the Grand Tetons of Wyoming. The backgrounds and setting are intoxicating in their beauty, and help overcome some of the movie's periodic awkwardness in dealing with such diverse matters as poor folks and sex. And backing up the presentation of the film are a featurette showing the movie's premiere in the Wyoming town where it was filmed -- including interviews with local townspeople and officials -- and period interviews with Henry Fonda. Additionally, the producers have included a good onscreen biographical portrait of author Earl Hamner as well as of the production of Spencer's Mountain, and its evolution into The Waltons. All of these features are accessible through an easy-to-use menu, and the movie has been further respected with the programming of 31 chapter markers, which is just right for the 118 minute feature.
