  WSR Narrative Review
Story Synopsis:
Based on the novel

DVD Picture:
Though not noted on the DVD jacket, the black-and-white 2.35:1 picture is anamorphically enhanced. Images can be quite sharp, but the overall appearance is smeared with soft edges. The gray scale is quite good, exhibiting gradations with bright whites and deep blacks. Some of the darker scenes center at newspaper gray. Source element artifacts are occasional, but the picture is quite solid with minimally noticed film grain. Aliasing problems are noticed on occasion, and fine details shimmer at times.
