Chen Kaige's erotic thriller Killing Me Softley comes to DVD with a pair of transfers. The widescreen anamorphic transfer preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1, and is preferable to the standard full-frame image. A closed-captioned English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1. English, Spanish, and French subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include the original theatrical trailer. This is a fine release from MGM/UA that boasts excellent sound and picture quality. This DVD contains the R-rated version of the film. A different edition offers the "unrated" cut of the film. |
