City slicker Molly Trousdale (Jean Arthur) finds love in cowboy Duke Hutkins (John Wayne) despite being other personality opposites. A part of a series of standard movie only new-to-DVD releases of Republic Pictures titles from Artisan Home Entertainment, “A Lady Takes A Chance” is presented in a black and white (1.33:1) aspect ratio with an English Monaural 2.0 Soundtrack and optional English Closed Captions for the hearing impaired.

The picture quality on this DVD is a bit of a disappointment. There are lots of scratches and flecks and the image looks a little faded too. The soundtrack is clear, but nothing outstanding. The title is being offered for a suggest retail price of $14.98. “A Lady Takes A Chance” debuts on DVD-Video on Tuesday, January 21, 2003 from Artisan Home Entertainment.
