Overview

"Presented in its original 1.33:1 aspect ratio, the DVD version is derived from a 35 mm internegative made from masters in England. Film historian Bruce Eder provides a detailed and extensive commentary on the history and making of the film. Other special features include a piece on the costumes of the period, a chronology of the history plays -- ""Shakespeare's Royalty,"" 11 black-and-white production photos, the theatrical trailer, and color bars, presumably for making color adjustments. The audio is monaural and sounds it, and the colorization is rather obvious."
