Editorial Review:
Geronimo: An American Legend:An American legend comes to breathtaking life in this explosive epic Western starring Jason PatricRobert Duvall Gene Hackman and Wes Studi as Geronimo. Studi (The Last Of The Mohicans) gives a stunning performance as the fearless warrior who was the last Indian leader to surrender to the white man. Betrayed by the Army's legendary Indian fighter General George Crook (Hackman) Geronimo leads a small band of warriors in escape. Pursued by a principled officer (Patric) a grizzled Army scout (Duvall) and a gung-ho West Point graduate (Matt Damon Good Will Hunting) Geronimo evades capturethrough brilliant military strategy and cut-throat courage. His true story is both an action adventure and a spiritual journey through the heart of a warrior.All The Pretty Horses:Always wanting to live the cowboy lifestyle young John Grady (Damon) sets off for a Hacienda in Mexico. While there John enters into a passionate romance with the spellbinding Alejandra (Cruz) much to the displeasure of her powerful father. Doomed from the start their illicit affair will culminate in murder and betrayal and young John will have to confront the ultimate test of inner strength and resilience.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA UPC: 043396150034 Manufacturer No: 15003
All the Pretty Horses / Geronimo: An American Legend Reviews:
Geronimo:An American Legend 
2008-04-01 - Agree wholeheartedly with reviewer on misrepresentation of aspect ratio by Sony on dvd Geronimo:An American Legend as part of the double feature ALL THE PRETTY HORSES and GERONIMO. I checked out the description in INDB and several internet retailers before I decided to purchase. I was very ticked off at Sony for their deceptive advertising and will contact Sony directly. Amazon cannot be expected to inspect each dvd to see if it is in aspect ratio stated on dvd box and literature,but they have the clout to reprehend Sony in this matter.
Whoops. Sony releases another Digital Dud.
2008-03-26 - Regardless of the film content (All the Pretty Horses is quite good, but I refuse to watch Geronimo Pan&Scanned, so I've yet to see it)...Sony has done it again.
As usual, they recycle a release that used to contain both Wide and Fullscreen options and put it out--under the SAME UPC--without widescreen, eliminating any interest I have in their product.
But this time, oh boy, this time, the packaging states "2.35:1 Anamorphic Widescreen" under Geronimo. TWICE. On the back of the slipbox the two discs come in, AND on the back of the slimcase Geronimo itself is packaged in. Despite that, it's a re-formatted P&S pile of junk.
So hey, double trouble!
A mix of a bad DVD-authoring choice AND false advertising! Well done Sony Home Entertainment!
