DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD is slightly soft and hazy, with occasional smearing, though images can appear sharp at times. Colors are slightly weak, noticeable in black level.

Fine film grain and source element artifacts are noticed, but are not too bothersome. (Suzanne Hodges)
