Park Row was the first film Samuel Fuller entirely wrote, directed and produced putting his own money to finish the film (and loosing it all in the process). The low budget feature was released by United Artists, so now it makes its DVD debut on MOD disc from MGM.
The progressive transfer is in its original academy aspect ratio. The great noir cinematography is featured well on this disc, although there is slight green hue that is less noticeable on a CRT. The image is overall very clean, with very little damage, although some scenes are soft. English mono soundtrack is decent, but per usual standard, there are no subtitles provided. At least, MGM includes a theatrical trailer with this release. Note to future buyers, some people who bought this DVD at Amazon, received Harry in Your Pocket (although labeled 'Park Row' on the disc). Otherwise, this release is recommended to Samuel Fuller fans. -Gregory Meshman |
