Description

This new digital transfer was created in 2K resolution from the 35mm original camera negative at Mosfilm. Nearly blocked from being made by Soviet censors, who took seven years to approve its script, Come and See is perhaps the most visceral, impossible-to-forget antiwar film ever made. This extra debuts three of those five documentaries, titled Handful of Sand, Mute Scream, and Woman From The Killed Village. If your item does not have a tracking number assigned, it may mean it has been sent by standard parcel post with Australia Post and does not coming with a tracking number. This amount includes seller specified domestic postage charges as well as applicable international postage, dispatch, and other fees.

It will come as a surprise to no one, at least those who pointed out how several shots from Come and See appeared as if they were lifted wholesale for 1917, to hear cinematographer Roger Deakins in a new interview included with this release discuss the influence of the film’s hyper-realistic look on his own work.Criterion gave this a new 1080p HD transfer with its original mono soundtrack and tons of new and vintage extras. The hazy, almost hallucinatory lighting in some scenes washed out the colors in previous releases, but here the image is incredibly stable, boasting impressive contrast differentiation. Over his single mother's protests, he joins the partisans, but they leave him behind in their camp when they set off to fight the Germans. Sourced from a 2K digital restoration by Mosfilm, this transfer makes Come and See’s stark color palette pop with a sharpness of detail that only compounds the film’s bleak atmosphere. Commander Kosach's (Liubomiras Laucevicius) reluctance to treat the 'new recruit' as he does the rest of the partisans, however, quickly pushes the boy away from the camp.

Addition: Interestingly, I learned through members of our forum that the film was released with a 3. For more about Come and See and the Come and See Blu-ray release, see Come and See Blu-ray Review published by Dr. encoded with MPEG-4 AVC and granted a 1080p transfer, Come and See arrives on Blu-ray courtesy of Criterion.There is only one area -- the footage from the house where the young boy is recruited -- where I felt that the brightness levels could have been slightly better, but overall on the Blu-ray the visuals have an entirely new and very attractive organic quality.
