Only the widescreen side was screened for this review. Sharpness usually appears very crisp and well-defined, with only a few occasions during which the image looks vaguely fuzzy or blurred. Colors are a little inconsistent but generally look strong. Black levels always seem very deep and dark, and shadow detail looked appropriately opaque. Although it obviously remains a modest affair, the film's mono sound seems quite good.
Music appears infrequently but seems adequately crisp and bright when it does.
Effects are very mellow as well, and they sound clear and acceptably realistic. Since it's a chatty movie, the speech is the most important aspect of this soundtrack, and it works well. The DVD itself provides a very strong picture with fine sound in addition to the nearly non-existent extras.
