Story Synopsis:
In Jeremy Podeswa

DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD exhibits a picture that should surely please, with images that are sharp and detailed throughout. Colors are easy-on-the-eyes, with a natural appearance, accurate fleshtones and deep blacks. Contrast and shadow delineation are nicely rendered throughout. There are occasional scenes that appear slightly hazy. Some minor edge enhancement is apparent, but overall distractions are minimal. (Suzanne Hodges)
