The Lost Honor of Katharina Blum(1975)
Katharina, a young woman who meets a suspected terrorist at a party, falls in love, and agrees to hide him from the authorities. For more about The Lost Honor of Katharina Blum and The Lost Honor of Katharina Blum Blu-ray release, see The Lost Honor of Katharina Blum Blu-ray Review The Lost Honor of Katharina Blum Blu-ray, Video QualityPresented in its original aspect ratio of 1.66:1, encoded with MPEG-4 AVC and granted a 1080p transfer, Volker Schlöndorff and Margarethe von Trotta's The Lost Honor of Katharina Blum arrives on Blu-ray courtesy of British distributors Optimum Home Entertainment. This is yet another quite strong addition to the Studio Canal Collection. Despite a few minor fluctuations, contrast levels are very good, clarity pleasing, and fine object detail satisfying. The film's grain structure is also fully intact; mild digital noise is noticeable during some of the indoor scenes, but overall the transfer has a clean, natural look. Furthermore, I noticed a few minor color pulsations at the very end of the film - during the funeral, and right before the speech - but the rest of the transfer looks solid. Edge-enhancement and macroblocking are not a serious issue of concern. Severe aliasing does not plague the transfer either. Finally, aside from a few very small flecks that I noticed popping up here and there, The Lost Honor of Katharina Blum also looks remarkably healthy. (Note: This Blu-ray disc has been coded for Regions A and B. Therefore, you must have a native Region A or B, or Region-Free player in order to be able to access its content. Also, the disc's main menu can be set in one of the following languages - English, German, French, or Japanese). The Lost Honor of Katharina Blum Blu-ray, Audio QualityThere is only one audio track on this Blu-ray disc: German DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0. For the record, Optimum Home Entertainment/Studio Canal have provided optional English, French, German and Japanese subtitles for the main feature. The German DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 track is very strong. It is clean, stable and with a pleasing range of dynamics. The dialog is crisp and very easy to follow, and Hans Werner Henze's intense music score well balanced with it. Additionally, I did not detect any pops, cracks, or clicks; a very mild hiss, however, is present throughout the entire film. Nevertheless, the German DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 track services the film well, and I don't foresee anyone being even remotely disappointed by it.
