DVD Review: Man Hunt (1941) - Page 2

The video is presented in an aspect ratio of 1.33:1. The audio is defaulted to mono, which pursuits will enjoy, and there is a stereo option as well. The music is by Alfred Newman, Randy’s uncle.

There are a few Special Features included. Patrick McGilligan, author of Fritz Lang: The Nature of the Beast, delivers a very informative commentary track. The main focus is on Lang’s history, his directorial style, and the differences between book and film. “Rouge Male: The Making of Man Hunt” presents a number of critics and historians talking about the film. The “Restoration Comparison” offers a side-by-side comparison of film transfers and the restoration done. The film looks good, but there are still some occasional flaws in the image. The remaining features deal with advertising and artwork.

Man Hunt is best suited for fans of 1940s films because it may not hold the attention or interest of a modern-day audience.
