This NTSC DVD edition of appears to have been mastered from a good to very-good 16mm reduction print.
The film is accompanied by the musical accompaniment on the source print’s optical soundtrack.
We recommend this inexpensive three-disc Jean Renoir set for its very-good to excellent prints that are all of better quality than previous editions on budget VHS videotape.
