We don't really know how to react, as does Harry. We can only sit and wonder what happens to the couple whose conversation was recorded. The Conversation answers a lot of these questions, but it also leaves a few of them unanswered as well. The Conversation will make you think, for sure. While the movie is nearly 30 years old, for the most part it looks good.
Edge enhancement is minimal and the level of detail visible is very impressive.
On the whole, it's a nice, solid transfer and certainly better than any other version of this movie on any other format. As is the case with a lot of Paramount's older catalog titles, this has been remastered in Dolby Digital 5.1 surround. While this movie certainly isn't audio-driven, having a new soundtrack is always a nice touch. My only complaint, and this is very minimal, is that the original mono soundtrack wasn't included. Still, the extras on this disc more than make up for the lack of the mono soundtrack.
