UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ - The Last Detail -- in 4k UHD (1 Viewer)

[Robert Harris]

Shout Factory has released Hal Ashby's 1973 "buddy" picture The Last Detail on 4k UHD, and the results from the Columbia-based 4k master are fully Crisp in all ways.

The tale of a pair of navy professionals escorting an innocent young guy to prison for a petty crime is at times wonderfully humorous as well as heart-breaking.

No detail here. Suffice to say that it's a wonderful film, offered as a Shout Select release in an absolutely perfect 4k UHD release.

Based upon a 4k scan of the OCN, everything is in place - color, contrast, original grain structure, and stability are all dead on, thanks to Columbia.

Jack Nicholson was nominated for Best Actor, and Carol Kane is perfect as the perfect young lady of the evening.

For those who may have missed The Last Detail, you're in for a treat.

Great movie. I went with my mother when it opened, age 15 (me, not my mother). She was taken aback by the language!

"fully Crisp in all ways."

I see what you did there and I like it.

And of course what Sony did with The Last Detail, very happy to see more of their substantial catalog of 4K masters on UHD Blu-ray.
