The film is presented in its original 2.35:1 theatrical ratio and is crisp and sharp, looking at its best when showing off stunning views of the sea, including beautifully-shot scenes such as when a shoal of fish are swimming along with him. And you can also see just how chiseled his face looks, despite his eyes looking considerably younger 😉
For the record, I’m watching on a Panasonic 50″ Plasma screen with a Samsung BDP1500 player.
Audio-wise, this is mostly an ambience-led piece as there’s only one character onscreen and precious little dialogue, but the audio is clear and does everything it needs to without a hitch.
The extras are as follows, but there’s precious little to get excited about:
- All Is Lost: The Story (3:45): A very brief summary of the basics, with chat from Redford and key
crew members. - The Actor: Robert Redford (4:26): A similarly short piece.
- The Filmmaker: J.C. Chandor (3:18): And you get the idea.
- Audio Descriptive Track: Does what it says on the tin.
There are subtitles in oodles of languages (see below) but unfortunately a low 12 chapters, which a lot of distributors tend to go with.
