My Life as a Dog(1985)
A twelve-year old Swedish boy is sent to live with his aunt and uncle in a country village after his mother becomes ill. For more about My Life as a Dog and the My Life as a Dog Blu-ray release, see the My Life as a Dog Blu-ray Review Starring: Anton Glanzelius, Ing-Marie Carlsson, Kicki Rundgren, Tomas von Brömssen, Ralph Carlsson Director: Lasse Hallström » See full cast & crew My Life as a Dog Blu-ray, Video QualityPresented in an aspect ratio of 1.67:1, encoded with MPEG-4 AVC and granted a 1080p transfer, Lasse Hallström's My Life as a Dog arrives on Blu-ray courtesy of Criterion. The film's transition to Blu-ray is very convincing. Generally speaking, the image conveys tremendous depth and fluidity, with many of the close-ups revealing plenty of small details and textures that are simply missing on Criterion's SDVD release of the film. The delicate contrast during the memory flashbacks is also very convincing (see screencapture #6). Aside from a few minor color pulsations around the edges during the prologue, color reproduction is also superior - on the SDVD release the light blues, greens, and browns are quite shaky; now they are stable and looking healthy. Furthermore, there are no signs of heavy digital sharpening. The film grain is also kept intact, though portions of it are mixed with light noise. A few tiny flecks pop up here and there, but large cuts, damage marks, and warps are nowhere to be seen. All in all, this is a very convincing presentation that should please enormously fans of the film. (Note: This is a Region-A "locked" Blu-ray disc. Therefore, you must have a native Region-A or Region-Free PS3 or SA in order to access its content). My Life as a Dog Blu-ray, Audio QualityThere is only one audio track on this Blu-ray disc: Swedish LPCM 1.0. For the record, Criterion have provided optional English subtitles for the main feature. The Swedish LPCM 1.0 track does not disappoint. The sound is well rounded and thick and free of hiss, cracks, and pops. There are no balance issues with Björn Isfält's music score or serious audio distortions to report in this review either. The dialog is crisp, clean, stable and easy to follow. The English translation is excellent.
