  Difficult to regain a past atmoshpere.....
  
  Too out of date now..... the acting is slow and the story not clear..... trying to re-create the fun of years ago is not easy!

  MASH DVD2 - DONT BOTHER
  
  Words fail me, if you watch the absolutely great film on DVD1 immediately cancel DVD2, not worth watcing, few clips and too much talk over!
