dir. Akira Kurosawa

Criterion Collection · 4K + Blu-ray

dir. Alfred Hitchcock

Universal 4K steelbook available. Reviewers note this is the weakest-looking Hitchcock 4K, which says more about how good the rest are than about this disc. The practical effects show their age at 4K resolution, but the attic scene and schoolhouse sequence still play. The lack of a traditional score (Hitchcock used electronic bird sounds) makes the lossless audio track unusual.
