One of French master Jean-Pierre Melville's best films, Bob Le Flambeur, comes to DVD with a standard full-frame transfer. The French soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Mono. English subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include a radio interview with the director, an interview with lead actor Daniel Cauchy, and the theatrical trailer. This is another title that shows why consumers have come to expect the best from Criterion. The disc may not be loaded with extras, but this film has never looked so good on home video. |
