Vladimir Nabokov would have been in awe of Mena Suvari's nymphet Angela, one part vixen, one part little girl. Together they equal trouble, and Suvari makes you believe that her character is more than capable of creating a little trouble. The colors are absolutely vibrant, with just enough grain to give them an edge. This is not a compression issue, but a choice made with the type of equipment and film used, which also allows for specific attention to detail and great depth of field. Flesh tones are warm and honest, while the rest of the color spectrum arrives with perfect saturation with no bleeding or fading.
Blacks are strong, while the pristine negative provides for clean whites and grays.
No real noticeable compression artifacts. Dolby Digital Surround Subtle yet defined soundtrack provides a few surprises. All the sound fields deliver accurate information, from a true stereo split, to a dialogue mix that is front and center. Basses are there but hardly noticeable, while the middle and high ends sound superb. No noticeable hiss or distortion here.
