George Harrison: Living in the Material World(2011)
The film focuses the imaginative and inspired eye of one of cinema's most preeminent filmmakers on one of the world's most influential men. The film takes viewers on the musical and spiritual voyage that was George Harrison's life, much of it told in his own words. The result is deeply moving and touches each viewer in unique and individual ways. For more about George Harrison: Living in the Material World and the George Harrison: Living in the Material World Blu-ray release, see the George Harrison: Living in the Material World Blu-ray Review published by Jeffrey Kauffman on May 2, 2012 where this Blu-ray release scored 4.5 out of 5. Starring: George Harrison Director: Martin Scorsese » See full cast & crew George Harrison: Living in the Material World Blu-ray, Video QualityGeorge Harrison: Living in the Material World is presented on Blu-ray courtesy of Hip-O Select with an AVC encoded 1080p transfer in 1.78:1 and 1.33:1. As might be expected from a documentary knit together from so many different sources, image quality here is highly variable, going from the immaculately sharp and well detailed contemporary interview segments to the almost unrecognizable fuzziness of several old 8mm home movies. The overall look of the documentary is certainly well above average, and it also faithfully reproduces the look of all of these different sources and film stocks. Colors are generally quite robust and well saturated, and at least in the contemporary sequences, fine detail is extremely pleasing. Contrast and black levels are as variable as the source elements, again as should be expected. George Harrison: Living in the Material World Blu-ray, Audio QualityGeorge Harrison: Living in the Material World features two lossless audio options, a DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround mix and an uncompressed LPCM 2.0 stereo fold down. There's both good news and bad news to report, though the bad news is simply that there isn't enough good newsby which I mean, many of the fantastic source cues interwoven into the documentary are simply cut short, as seems to be Scorsese and Tedeschi's wont in documentaries like these. The 5.1 mix really beautifully opens up a lot of Harrison's and The Beatles' music, and it's especially welcome in the massed drones of some of the Indian pieces, which breathe with a new life on this mix. The rest of the documentary is a pretty straightforward affair featuring talking heads, and those elements sport excellent fidelity. Dynamic range is quite varied, especially with regard to several of the music cues, but some fans are probably going to be wishing that more of those music cues were available without the "sudden stop" editing utilized here.
