Story Synopsis:
Leonard Zelig

DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD picture is designed to resemble a documentary, with rough black and white images that appear to be vintage stock footage, with major artifacts and print scratches. The color scenes are also quite rough in appearance, with rich, undefined colors that appear

Soundtrack:
The Dolby Digital 2.0 soundtrack is big fat mono. When Pro Logic-decoded, the audio is properly placed in the center channel. The audio has a documentary style and feel, and is essentially undistinguished with the inherent limitations of the original soundtrack production. (Perry Sun)
