  WSR Narrative Review
Story Synopsis:
One of director Robert Altman

DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced 2.35:1 DVD has a dated appearance with colors that are rich, but undefined with slightly brownish fleshtones. Some scenes appear a bit hazy and smeared, while others are generally sharp. Background definition is wanting. Dirt and artifacts are evident throughout. Minor pixelization is apparent, but the occasional shimmer or edge enhancement does not distract. Overall, a generally mediocre DVD picture, but undoubtedly the best the picture has looked on home video.

Soundtrack:
The Dolby
