In 1982 there was a monthly magazine named Cinema which was issued only in England but is no longer in print. It featured the regular stuff you`d expect to find , news, reviews, merchandise etc.. In issue 7, the magazine decided to feature Tron on a beautiful double sided cover to coincide with the general release of the film in the UK. The film was reviewed by a guy named Richard Holliss. It had a number of color and black and white photos with the review. Generally, the review was extremly postitive for the film. It stated Tron as a welcome change from most Disney films and gave a glowing review for the CGI which most articles on Tron did. Jeff Bridges and David Warner were also given glowing reviews for their performances. Although it may be considered to be a minor piece of Tron merchandise,I still think it`s worth getting for the cover and because the review is just so good. But, unless you know anyone in England who has ever seen this magazine, your chances are a bit remote in purchasing it. - Martin
