DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced and windowboxed 1.66:1 DVD exhibits a picture that looks quite good for its age. Colors are a bit dated, but generally rich, with balanced fleshtones. Blacks are slightly weak throughout. Film grain and source element artifacts are evident, and can seem a bit excessive at times. Though a bit grimy and lacking a smooth, natural appearance, the picture is otherwise pleasing throughout. There is some edge enhancement detected in the picture, but its presence is not excessive.
