DVD Details Special Features   Screenshots   Inside DVD Case   Reviews 

Baron Ferdinando Cefalщ (Marcello Mastroianni) longs to marry his nubile, young cousin Angela (Stefania Sandrelli), but one obstacle stands in his way: his fatuous and fawning wife, Rosalia (Daniela Rocca). His solution? Since divorce is illegal, he will devise a scenario wherein he can catch his spouse in the arms of another and murder her to save his honor—a lesser offense. The Criterion Collection is proud to present director Pietro Germi’s hilarious and cutting satire of Italy’s hypocritical judicial system and male-dominated culture, winner of the 1962 Academy Award® for Best Original Screenplay.

  About the Transfer:

Divorce Italian Style is presented in its original aspect ratio of 1.85:1. Black bars at the top and bottom of the screen are normal for this format. This new high-definition digital transfer was created on a C-Reality Telecine with Oliver Electronic Wet Gate processing from the 35mm original negative. Thousands of instances of dirt, debris, and scratches were removed using the MTI Digital Restoration System. To maintain optimal image quality through the compression process, the picture on this dual-layer DVD-9 was encoded at the highest possible bit rate for the quantity of materials included.

The soundtrack was mastered at 24-bit from the original 35mm optical soundtrack negative and the restored soundtrack, courtesy of Artech Video Record. Audio restoration tools were used to reduce clicks, pops, hiss, and crackle. The Dolby Digital 1.0 signal will be directed to the center channel on 5.1-channel sound systems, but some viewers may prefer to switch to two-channel playback for a wider dispersal of the mono sound.
