The guys over at DVD Beaver have taken a look at the new Drunken Angel from Criterion. They compare the print to BFI’s Region 2 release, and note that the Criterion looks better, thanks to their restoration work.
This in-depth review of the film’s technical aspect can be found here. Thanks to Ben for the heads-up!
For more in formation about the home video availability of Drunken Angel films, see the sections on Kurosawa DVDs and Kurosawa Blu-rays.
