      WSR Narrative Review

    Robert DeNiro stars as Nick Wells, a professional thief who has successfully eluded the law for 20 years by remaining extremely cautious. Finally ready to retire, Nick is committed to settling down with his stewardess girlfriend Diane (Bassett), and focusing on running his Montreal jazz club. But when his friend Max (Brando) offers him $4 million to retrieve a French scepter from the Montreal Customs House, Nick considers The Score one last time. Persuading Nick to violate two of his most important rules

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 2.35:1 DVD picture exhibits sharp and detailed images with good contrast and shadow delineation. Colors are rich and well balanced, with accurate fleshtones, rich hues, and deep blacks. Edge enhancement contributes to a hard appearance, as do shimmering details and some pixelization. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby
