Down and Out in Beverly Hills

Often considered Bette Midler's comeback film, Paul Mazursky's Down and Out in Beverly Hills comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Stereo. Supplemental materials include trailers. This is a decent release from Disney/Buena Vista, but there is little here to interest the average DVD consumer. That is a shame considering this film's status as one of the finest satires of the '80s.
