For more details about Roxanne on Blu-ray, see the Roxanne Blu-ray Review Roxanne Blu-ray, Video Quality  Roxanne inches onto Blu-ray with a hit-or-miss 1080p, 2.40:1-framed transfer. The transfer features heavy layers of grain in some scenes but is practically free of it in others. It's also a bit soft in some shots yet adequately sharp in others. The transfer is sometimes dim, but at other times nicely rendered, crisp, and clear. Roxanne is a rather colorful film, the colors nicely rendered, be they a pink neon sign, green outdoor foliage, or the red of the town's fire engine. Interior shots also fare nicely; the inside of Roxanne's home features a nice level of detail as the camera pans around the warm, inviting interior, the wood panels on the walls, kitchen countertops and kitchen tables, for example, offer an adequate level of visible information. Flesh tones are good, and black levels are decent. All things considered, Roxanne looks fine on Blu-ray, even if some shots aren't as pretty as others. Roxanne Blu-ray, Audio Quality  Roxanne doesn't smoke Blu-ray with a powerful and engaging soundtrack. Instead, its Dolby TrueHD 5.1 lossless offering presents the limited and somewhat bland sound design as intended. The smooth Jazz heard over the opening credits plays crisply and clearly, delivering adequate notes throughout the entire range. It's soft and spacious, filling the room nicely. As the film goes by, the vast majority of the track is placed across the front and primarily in the center channel. A few effects manage to move noticeably between the speakers to add some dimension and flow to the track. The rear channels seemingly remain silent throughout the experience. Dialogue reproduction suffices in nearly every scene. Roxanne doesn't offer much range, but this lossless soundtrack provides all the information one needs to hear to make the movie work.
