Picture Format:

1080p24 AVC MPEG-4

Finnish DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1
Finnish LPCM 2.0 stereo

Suffers from incorrect colour mastering: the disc uses PC gray space (0–255) instead of TV levels (16–235). The error can be circumvented by setting the video output of your Blu-ray player to PC levels (0–255) when watching the movie, if such setting is available.
All extras in HD (1080p24), but the vintage featurettes are mastered from analogue SD video tape.
All extras in Finnish with optional English subtitles.
