Lost Highway (The Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray]

Great movie, great service

Lost Highway (The Criterion Collection) is for David Lynch fans and anyone curious about his darker, more abstract work. Not for viewers looking for clarity or comfort. Pros • The 4K scan does the film justice, with noticeably cleaner blacks and stronger contrast than older releases. • Grain and texture feel intact rather than scrubbed, which suits the mood and era of the film. • Sound and image together finally give the film some breathing room at home. Cons • The film itself is still opaque and unsettling, which can be a turnoff if you’re new to Lynch. Verdict This is the best I’ve seen the film look and feel. As a longtime Lynch fan, this release absolutely delivers.

A David Lynch masterpiece. Weird as usual.

Very good nightmarish film in 4K! Is it worth upgrading from the blu-ray? If you like or love this movie then YES!

I have yet to see a bad David Lynch film. And really all I need to know is that it was David Lynch that made this film. Lost Highway is a GREAT film as are ALL of his films!

Excellent piece from David Lynch! It keeps you intrigued, guessing and on edge the entire film, in his signature noir style.

Criteron Collection always do solid work and it’s no different here. The transfer is great and the film looks fantastic. It has a few bonus features including interviews and a full length documentary on the art of David Lynch. As for the film itself, like all of Lynch’s work it is dark and surreal. Not my favorite of his filmography but absolutely worth watching. I’ve seen a lot of people say this is Lynch’s ode to Neo-Noire but if felt more akin to his take on an erotic thriller to me.

I believe this is Lynch’s’ 7th film, but not certain, but the point being you can tell he’s on his game. With Criterion now in the 4k business you get all the great extras and dir tor approved restorations. If you like David Lynch, Patricia Arquette, and Bill Pullman this is in your wheel house. I’m familiar with the Blu Ray and most extras and now adding a 4k hdr inserted this is a great 50% off pickup! This half off cycle I added Shaft, Lost Highway, Risky Business all 4k added to a super storm Citizen Kane 4k & Double Indemnity 4k plus others. So far criterion is firing on all cylinders and adding Lost Highway 4k has just strengthened my collection. Grab it at 50% off! As physical media starts dwindling it’s nice to see Criterion leaning into 4k. Most Criterion blu rays beat 3rd party 4ks in sound and picture. Avoid 4k that are not hdr or full restorations and avoid double dips unless you get a full restoration.

Gran película. Un enigma dentro de un misterio. Más que resolverlo hay que experimentar la película y dejarse llevar. En esta versión se ve y se escucha increíble.

An excellent David Lynch movie! Part of the description says, A mesmerising meditation on the mysterious nature of identity! It's perplexing in a good way! LOST HIGHWAY "this Blu Ray" has a 4K restoration, a new 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack! And extras, with interviews with Dir: David Lynch, actors Patricia Arquette, Bill Pullman & Robert Loggia! Beautifully Shot! With an excellent sound track, which I'll photo of! A note of trivia is Bill & Patricia's house is actually one of David Lynch's, in his compound residence!

As a longtime fan of David Lynch's work, I've always felt that Lost Highway was a visual and sonic masterpiece that never quite got the home video treatment it deserved. Criterion's new 4K UHD release changes that completely. This is the definitive edition, and it's an absolute must-buy. The new 4K transfer, supervised by Lynch himself, is a revelation. The film's signature contrast between deep, suffocating blacks and vibrant, saturated reds is stunningly rendered with Dolby Vision HDR. Details that were murky in previous releases now pop with clarity, from the grainy texture of the film stock to the unsettling shadows in Fred Madison's house. It truly feels like watching the film in a new light, or rather, in a new darkness. The audio is equally impressive. The DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 soundtrack brings Trent Reznor's score and Angelo Badalamenti's compositions to life in a way that is both immersive and unsettling. The mix is dynamic, with dialogue remaining perfectly clear even during the film's most chaotic and bass-heavy sequences. The unsettling sound design, a hallmark of Lynch's work, has never been so effective. Beyond the perfect A/V presentation, the set includes a fantastic array of special features. The highlight is the feature-length documentary, Pretty as a Picture: The Art of David Lynch, which is an essential companion piece. Archival interviews and excerpts from his book, Room to Dream, round out a comprehensive package that offers a wealth of insight into this elusive film. In summary, if you're a fan of Lost Highway, this is the upgrade you've been waiting for. If you've never seen the film, there has never been a better way to experience this bizarre, hypnotic, and unforgettable cinematic fugue state.

Wow! I'm over joyed that one of my favourite films is FINALLY represented properly! The 4K UHD version is impeccable. I blasted it on 5.1 surround sound and nearly cried at how crisp and gorgeous the transfer is. I don't know what to say other than if you love Lynch and this kinda film, nothing tops this criterion addition. Thank you CRITERION xoxoxoxo

Se ve increíble y se disfruta más. Antes en dvd la imagen se apreciaba demasiado oscura y el audio tenía detalles.
