Our first look at this DVD edition reveals a full-frame, natural-speed video transfer from a very-good 35mm print that occasionally shows advanced signs of print decomposition, dark sections and missing snippets of footage. The film is accompanied by a music score composed by Vivek Maddala, as originally produced for Turner Classic Movies.

This edition also features two other Garbo MGM silents, alternate endings to Flesh and the Devil and The Temptress, audio commentary on Flesh and the Devil by Barry Paris, on The Temptress by Mark A. Vieira, and on The Mysterious Lady by Tony Maietta and Jeffrey Vance, with documentaries.
