A Passage to India

"A Passage to India comes to dual-layered DVD in a widescreen anamorphic format (1.85:1 non-theatrical aspect ratio) and very limited Dolby stereo audio qualities (namely, no remastering or redigitizing in Dolby 5.1). Nevertheless, the transfer is beautifully done, with the picture doing full justice to the superbly colorful scenery, without any blurring, smudging, or artifacts; the only drawback is the letterboxed standard black bars at the top and bottom of the screen. Sound quality is surprisingly sharp, and the soundtrack comes through with a rich fullness and crispness. Special or bonus features include the usual original theatrical trailers and a short (eight-minute) interview with the film's director."
