The DVD is quite an improvement over the laserdisc, especially the sound track (remastered for 5.1 on the DVD). The casting is truly excellent (Dustin Hoffman, Lawrence Olivier, Roy Scheider, William Devane, and Marte Keller) and the screenplay, draft # 14, is plausible and well thought out. There are two documentaries included, one a vintage promo and the other a comtemporary reflection on making the film with commentary n by Hoffman, Scheider, Keller, producer Robert Evans, and writer William Goldman.
Although he was nearly 40 at the time, Hoffman plays a convincing twenty something post grad college student. The dental torture scenes are still terribly scary and the documentery tells us that the fimmakers recut the scenes many time as test audiences kept leaving the theater during it. Tis one still holds up well.
