The Object of Beauty

Director: Michael Lindsay-Hogg Michael Lindsay-Hogg

Overview

Michael Lindsay-Hogg's caper comedy-drama The Object of Beauty comes to DVD with a standard full-frame transfer that fails to preserve the original theatrical aspect ratio. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Surround. There are no subtitles, but the soundtrack is closed-captioned. There are no supplemental materials of any consequence, making this disc difficult to recommend. The affordable list price, however, might make it worth a look for those interested in the cast (John Malkovich and Andie MacDowell).
