Lyne's palette -- warm and inviting one moment, cold and detached the next -- is brimming with attractive primaries, realistic skintones, and enveloping blacks. Contrast is spot on as well, injecting reliable depth and dimensionality into the image regardless of any particular scene's lighting source and intensity. More importantly, the BD doesn't struggle with saturation issues, compression limitations, and image cleanliness like the standard DVD. While it doesn't appear that Fox used any post-processing nonsense (like DNR), grain is less intrusive and more stable, source noise doesn't plague the darkest shots, and artifacting has all but been eliminated. Best of all, detail has been drastically improved. Textures are refined, on-screen text is crisp and legible, and objects are well defined. If anything, some minor edge enhancement threatens to interfere with the otherwise impressive picture. A handful of scenes do look softer than the rest of the film, but it's largely the result of Lyne's decision to pump smoke into many of his sets. Still, even though the lingering haze reduces clarity and obscures fine detail a bit at times, the effect rarely lasts long and doesn't detract from the overall quality too much. It may not turn as many heads as the latest and greatest high-def masterpieces, but Unfaithful still looks great. The BD easily and completely outclasses its DVD counterpart, renders the original print in exacting detail, and emerges as the version for fans of the film to own. The Blu-ray edition of Unfaithful also includes a convincing DTS HD Master Audio 5.1 surround track that weaves the film's hushed conversations, sorrowful score, and intense encounters into an immersive whole. Regardless of how quiet the soundscape sometimes becomes, dialogue remains sharp and evenly distributed across the front channels, pans flawlessly transition from speaker to speaker, and directionality is remarkably precise and believable. Aggressive low-end pulses are relegated to a few intense scenes in the second act, but subtle LFE support is present throughout the film -- foreground and background voices have genuine weight, moving objects exhibit natural heft, and passing cars are often paired with the slightest of rumbles. Even so, it's the rear speakers that are tasked with the most work and are responsible for the track's overall impact. Crisp ambience enhances the soundfield, interior acoustics have been perfectly replicated, and city streets sound suitably crowded. I certainly wouldn't go so far as to say the mix is a sonic powerhouse, but it's clear that its designers have gone to great lengths to faithfully represent every effect, beat, and word in the film's subdued soundscape.
