The Dolby Vision HDR color grading is very good, much better than SDR, but it's still not perfect. There are minor bit-depth errors. This is a source-based error, it's not from the disc's encoding. So, movies from the early 2000s to around 2020 have really been handcuffed by technology. Mostly, digital cameras were used, and early color grading was inadequate. It is what it is, and we're only just coming out of it now, so it's been a struggle. Unfortunately, digital cameras have had poor color depth for some time. High-budget movies in late 2021 have just started to overcome it. But even releases like Dune had bit-depth errors, so we're still not out of this digital handcuff yet. Regardless, I think this movie has been graded about as well as possible for the time. I noticed some increased blues (very minor) and increased brightness. This is stylized in this way; it gives the movie a filmic look and an almost '70s look which I really like. I love the way it looks. I think color fading around faces did show some minor depth errors, and the way light fades on walls looked a pinch-off. Just for reference, I'm using a Panasonic UB9000 and a professionally calibrated 77-inch LGC9 with Dolby Vision. In the end, all of it worked to Lynch’s advantage as Mulholland Drive was very well-received when it was released, earning him an Oscar nod for best director, but also putting Naomi Watts on the map. Fragmented or otherwise, it’s a great piece of work. The Driver: Limited Edition* (1978) (Steelbook) ( US/ UK all-region/ France) – UK date 12/16/22 – REVIEW – N4K, DV

Refn sets the tone by thanking Charles Bronson, waiting for a reaction, and then explaining what he means. (Refn devotees will immediately understand that he’s not talking about the actor.) Like the commentary, it’s filled with plenty of personal details, as well as memories of working together. Refn and Newman have worked together since Bronson in 2008, while Martinez joined the team with Drive three years later, but they clearly have good chemistry together. They do spend plenty of time discussing Drive, which Refn refers to as having the immersion of Valhalla Rising with the aesthetics of Bronson. It’s a long, leisurely discussion, but it’s both informative and revealing. Newman goes solo for Cutting a Getaway, which is a more focused look at his own work with Refn. He gives a brief recap of how he became Refn’s English-language editor, before focusing on what was involved in cutting Drive. Finally, 3 Point Turn is a video essay by writer and filmmaker Leigh Singer, which examines the three major driving sequences in Drive. He explores both the similarities and differences in the camerawork for each of these scenes, and the ways in which they help to establish Driver’s character.

Marking the first 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray release from both MVD and 88 Films, Drive arrives in a new 4K transfer sourced from a 4K scan of the original camera negative. This looks to be the same transfer used on MVD’s previous Blu-ray release of the film, although this time the transfer is opened up to a 3840x2160 resolution aided by Dolby Vision HDR. Overall, this is the best the film has ever looked at home, pulling as much depth and clarity out of the source as possible. As mentioned previously, the aesthetic of the film can be a bit flat, with primaries usually looking muted and everything looking a bit soft. But the HEVC (H.265) codec handles it all capably, which is a delight to see from a debut 4K release.
