Our first look reveals that the disc has been mastered from an excellent 35mm print (possibly from Lobster Films, France). Image details are clear and the disc is very satisfying viewing.

The presentation features a music score performed on synthesizers by Eric Beheim.

Liner notes are by author Michael F. Blake. The disc appears to be an excellent value for the money.
