Additionally, flesh tones appear quite natural, that is, for most members of the cast. Blacks are solid and the image delivers a good level of shadow detail. Digital compression artifacts remain in check throughout the presentation. The Dolby Digital 2.0 channel soundtrack decodes to standard surround and it is definitely one of the better matrixed tracks from the eighties. Everything is well recorded and the sound has a genuine sense of presence.
Dialogue is well reproduced, maintaining full intelligibility throughout.
There are some cleanly defined channel separations in forward soundstage, while the rear channels provide a good deal of ambient sound, atmosphere and musical fill. A French language soundtrack is also encoded onto the DVD, as are French and Spanish subtitles. The interactive menus have an interesting design that makes use of animation, full motion video and sound. Through the menus, one can access the standard scene selection and set up features, as well as a theatrical trailer.
