Story Synopsis:
When a tragic event at a roadside dive initiates a run from the law across the American southwest, the two women face-off to their uncertain future. The friendship that strengthens between the two is both vital and spirited and the only thing that lends hope and guidance in a world that is collapsing in on them. With an Academy Award®-winning script by Callie Khouri, and stellar Oscar® nominated performances by Sarandon and Davis, this poignant film crosses all boundaries and will stir the critical imagination for decades to come.
LaserDisc Picture:
The astounding sonic and visual quality of the transfer is sure to please. Visually, this is a reference quality transfer but at about 2.21:1, not 2.35:1. The color balance is faithful to the fidelity of the theatrical projection. There is not a trace of video noise or other picture degrading artifacts.
LaserDisc Soundtrack:
The sound design is excellent with a very aggressive Dolby Surround®. There is an enormous sense of dynamics and directionality in the surround channels with our Fosgate Processor. Road sounds of trucks and cars are the best I’ve ever heard. The climactic “I think it’s the Grand Canyon” scene is a beautiful piece of panoramic cinematography. The dramatic music score and sound effects will shake up your room. I recommend it highly.
