Pros: beautiful video and audio transfer; Demme's comedy-drama still can thrill
Cons: not the expansive bonus feature package one might expect

A film of somewhat delicately conflicting moods and shifts of tone, Jonathan Demme’s Something Wild is a dangerous comedy. Its humor skitters along the edges of nervous mirth, comedy holding on by the tips of its fingers before segueing into melodrama, and, surprise, surprise, it works! The movie features superb casting, fluid direction, and an effortless story that, while not always covering all of its bases, manages to juggle its competing elements of merriment and madness with great aplomb.
