Lost Horizon isn't a forgotten masterpiece but offers strong performances and emotional musical moments, with Twilight Time's Blu-ray enhancing its appeal.

Disc Release Date
DTS-HD MA
Video: 76
The Blu-ray of 'Lost Horizon' by Twilight Time boasts an impressive AVC encoded 1080p transfer in 2.40:1, possibly the same high-definition master used by Columbia Classics. The image quality is sharp and detailed, though some midrange shots appear soft. Colors are vivid but slightly red-tinged, revealing the film's glorious cinematography and even some matte painting seams.
Audio: 74
The lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 mix delivers excellent fidelity and dynamic range, effectively supporting both dialogue and musical numbers, with surround effects enhancing the immersive experience, notably during whistling wind scenes. The Blu-ray’s enhanced resolution also brings vibrant colors and rich details to life.
Extra: 71
The Blu-ray extras for 'Lost Horizon' are comprehensive, featuring new HD trailers, TV spots, a faded vintage featurette on Ross Hunter, alternate scenes, and Burt Bacharach's song demos, with the highlight being an isolated DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 score that showcases the orchestrations intimately.
Movie: 66
The lavish Blu-ray release of Lost Horizon by Twilight Time allows for a nearly complete restoration of this musical adaptation of Hilton's classic, despite setbacks like anachronistic Bacharach-David score and Hermes Pan's flawed choreography. However, the cinematography and some heartfelt performances underline its enduring appeal.
