Story Synopsis:
An old-fashioned story of love and passion set against the backdrop of World War 1 and Ireland’s revolution against the British. Academy Award performance for John Mills. Includes original trailer.Ryan’s Daughter is a beautiful film which tells an old fashioned story of love and passion set against the backdrop of World War I and Ireland’s revolution against the British. Filmed on the rugged west coast of Ireland, the sweeping panoramic Oscar®-winning photography of Freddie Young sets the epic scale associated with master director David Lean. John Mills’ wordless, eloquent performance as the crippled village simpleton won him the Academy Award® for Best Supporting Actor.

The sharp, digitally mastered transfer is absolutely gorgeous. The natural color fidelity and balance depicts sweeping seacoast vistas that will captivate you visually. The transfer is from a new 35mm anamorphic interpositive from the original 65mm camera negative and is presented in its compositionally correct 2.35:1 Panavision® aspect ratio.
LaserDisc Soundtrack:
The visuals are complemented by a subdued Dolby Surround® soundtrack.
