Conrack(1974)
Based on Pat Conroy’s memoir about his difficult if uplifting days as a teacher on a remote island off the coast of South Carolina. The idealistic young Conroy (Jon Voight) finds a largely illiterate population of black children, ill-equipped for life in the outside world; he determines to help them, combining love, energy, and sheer imagination in an extraordinary effort to pique their burgeoning interest in life off-island. For more about Conrack and the Conrack Blu-ray release, see Conrack Blu-ray Review published by Jeffrey Kauffman on March 28, 2014 where this Blu-ray release scored 3.5 out of 5. Director: Martin Ritt Writers: Irving Ravetch, Harriet Frank, Jr. Starring: Jon Voight, Paul Winfield, Madge Sinclair, Tina Andrews, Antonio Fargas, Ruth Attaway Producers: Harriet Frank, Jr., Irving Ravetch, Martin Ritt » See full cast & crew Conrack Blu-ray, Video QualityConrack is presented on Blu-ray with an AVC encoded 1080p transfer in 2.37:1. While this is generally a very pleasing looking high definition presentation, there are some minor contrast fluctuations that affect the dimly lit interior scenes at times. Otherwise, though, colors are well saturated and accurate looking, and close-ups and midrange shots are decently detailed. The overall look of the film isn't overly "sharp" in today's parlance, but this is a faithful recreation of the often diffused lighting style that Ritt and Alonzo opted for in the film. There is absolutely no sign of either denoising or digital sharpening and this transfer retains a very natural organic appearance. Conrack Blu-ray, Audio QualityConrack features a lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 (mono) mix which captures the film's dialogue, ambient environmental effects, and John Williams' almost Randy Newman-esque folksy score with excellent fidelity. There's not a whale of a lot of depth here, but things are well prioritized and the track has no issues of any kind to report.
