Technical review:

PQ was sharp & crisp - for the most part. That being said, the outdoor Mardi gras scenes (especially the ones at night) were definitely rough - but that may have had something to do with the limitations of the film print. I.e., maybe they couldn't improve on this that much.

The restoration was done by Sony (it's the same master as the 2009 Sony release) and the Mardi Gras scenes were shot in 16mm as opposed to 35mm.
