North Dallas Forty

"Ted Kotcheff's adaptation of Pete Gent's North Dallas Forty comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. English soundtracks are rendered in both Dolby Digital 5.1 and Dolby Digital Mono. English subtitles are accessible. There are no supplemental materials of any consequence, which is something of a shame considering how much of the material is based on Gent's actual experiences as a wide receiver for the Dallas Cowboys. Still, this Paramount release has a great picture and great sound."
