Drive (4K UHD) [Blu-ray] [2022]

Product Information

Mulholland Drive was shot on 35 mm film using Panavision Panaflex Platinum cameras and has been newly scanned (by Criterion and Studiocanal in a joint venture) and restored under the watchful eye of director David Lynch and DoP Peter Deming, from the original camera elements, to form a 4K DI from which this UHD is sourced. The use of surround sound and Atmos heights is more of a supportive role. However, in one scene where a helicopter goes overhead, it actually sounded as though a helicopter was flying over my house. I think good, it doesn't abuse the use of the height channels just to use them. I think it's tastefully done, and I'm very happy with it. an attendant 1080 version, though that may be due to some of those licensing issues, since it was MVD Visual that released the film on 1080 disc last Drive: a 70-minute conversation with Nicolas Winding Refn, Editor Mat Newman and Composer Cliff Martinez High Definition (1080p) presentation of the Extended Director's Cut in 2.35:1 aspect ratio from a brand new 4K HD scan of the original camera negative.

Drive was shot primarily on Arri Alexa, with more restrictive in-car shots captured using Canon 5D Mark II and Iconic HD-RH1 cameras, with prime lenses used to allow more light into the camera under low-lighting shots. The Alexa was reportedly selected due to the fact it was capable of shooting high ISO exposure without too much resultant noise, which was a concern particular in the opening sequences that were shot at night. Although technically Drive would be defined as an upscale, you would likely find it largely impossible to tell, with the new 4K master pulling some superb detail out of the image, both in close-ups and wider shots. That, coupled with the stunning cinematography from DOP Newton Thomas Sigel, leaves the visuals too sublime in both composition and rendering to really attempt to fault.

It’s very similar in content to Sony’s 2020 release and it’s an all-region Australian import. In the end, all of it worked to Lynch’s advantage as Mulholland Drive was very well-received when it was released, earning him an Oscar nod for best director, but also putting Naomi Watts on the map. Fragmented or otherwise, it’s a great piece of work.

There's no nasty edge enhancement either. I've seen some movies sharpened way too much because the source resolution was from a 2K. Thankfully this wasn't done, so I commend the encoders for this.

Currently, the release is scheduled ... On the road to Mulholland Drive – A 24 minute feature with Lynch talking about his approach to the film. It is shot to absolute perfection, steeped in imagery, fable and mythology, and bathed in a sweeping, emotionally tangible torrent of pulses and beats; modern yet 80s-styled electro-pop enhancing the experience in much the same way that Daft Punk did on Tron: Legacyand that The Chemical Brothers did for Hanna. Drive is presented in 4K UHD courtesy of 88 Films with a 2160p transfer in 2.35:1. Kind of comically considering it's now a year later, 88

I think 100 GB discs should be mandatory for all your future releases. Why? Because putting the extras on a 25 GB Blu-ray disc may actually be more expensive. If you used a single 100GB disc on Drive, for instance, you could have set the average bit-rate to 98 Mbps. That's about as high as the x265 encoder allows right now, and you'd have more than enough room to spare for extras, all on one disc. This would cover any potential low-bit-rate moments and any ability to resolve film grain in poorly lit scenes. All of the extras should obviously be optimized for a low bit-rate. 12 to 15 Mbps for all the extras is acceptable, you may even be able to go lower with some encoder optimization. I believe Dolby Atmos at 4 Mbps, even at 2 hours, is around 4GB. So, you'd have plenty of room left even for extras and to get the best quality encode possible. Sure, most movies are 2 hours long and now we have to go into 95 or even 90 Mbps transfers, but this is still more than perfect. Ultra-high reference transfers are possible, but a 66 GB disc will never allow it. You can't even set Drive to 90 Mbps on a 66GB disc. That's already 67 GB with no menus and no audio and no extras. I think you've done a great job on a 66GB disc, but it's not perfect. It could be better. I hope you're a company like Kino Lorber; they take criticism well and have changed the way they transfer their movies on 4K. They target 90 Mbps on pretty much all their discs, and they all look great. This is a very good release, and I recommend it, it's just not perfect. If Second Sight Films are open to discussion and changes I will be importing more movies from you. Thanks for listening. What started out as a failed TV pilot has become a beloved noir, gaining in reputation year after year being both inscrutable and accessible in equal measures.

detail levels on things like the industrial grating in one of the many shootout scenes, and the palette, while a little wan at times despite Dolby Vision i had the same felling im pretty sure i remote flashed one of these over usb but i got one today and it would not work with the asus or lg flasher on 2 different computers maybe they changed the chipset inside the usb case.

This looks to be the same transfer used on MVD’s previous Blu-ray release of the film, although this time the transfer is opened up to a 3840x2160 resolution aided by Dolby Vision HDR. Overall, this is the best the film has ever looked at home, pulling as much depth and clarity out of the source as possible. As mentioned previously, the aesthetic of the film can be a bit flat, with primaries usually looking muted and everything looking a bit soft. But the HEVC (H.265) codec handles it all capably, which is a delight to see from a debut 4K release. And if that is not already exceptional, Dolby Vision adds a depth and vibrancy to the image that simply has to be seen. Colours are rich with intensity, blues especially, but all primaries fare well. Skin tones are perfectly natural, even in the dream state, and watch how the picture grade fades as the film progresses from bright to dark but retaining depth and focus – stunning.
