Video: How Does the Disc Look?

This documentary appears in standard-def here with totally appropriate quality. This is a fly-on-the-wall documentary, so pristine David Lean visuals aren't exactly the number one order of business, but detail on this 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer is steady and clean, black levels are consistent, and color accuracy is appropriate and seemingly authentic throughout. Yeah, there are a couple instances of compression artifacting and banding to mention, but they're not enough to seriously detract from the experience the movie provides.

The Russian Dolby Digital 2.0 track here is also exactly what you might expect. Dialogue comes through nicely, and while there isn't a wild exuberance to this mix, as far as capturing the original aim of the documentary goes, one could hardly ask for more.

English subtitles are included.
