Interiors fair better, but they re sub par as well. We noted color smearing in a number of shots both interior and exterior. There's no ringing or shimmer from digital enhancement, but thin line colored halos of red and green are evident now and then. The picture is not nearly as sharp and detailed as we ve grown accustomed to seeing on good transfers of more recent features. Contrast and brightness levels are good and consistent.
Blacks are deep but often noisy.
White fields are blotchy, and blooming can be seen now and then. Shadow detail is fair. The print used by Paramount to strike their anamorphic transfer has nicks, scars and pock marks that ll catch your eye, but there aren't enough to distract you from the graininess that ll hold your attention more often. We ve given this image transfer three globes, but please note it's on the low side of three, and very nearly a two glober. This is a rather unremarkable, Dolby Digital mono recording.
