"Broadway Danny Rose" Blu-ray offers an AVC encoded 1080p transfer in 1.85:1, ensuring strong contrast and an organic image. While presenting admirable grain that enhances its distinctive look, minor flicker, occasional chunky grain, and speckling prevent the transfer from reaching perfection. Nonetheless, the commendable rendering of Gordon Willis's cinematography, with good depth and gray scale modulation, will satisfy fans.

The DTS-HD Master Audio Mono track on 'Broadway Danny Rose' is narrow but full-bodied, offering clear and balanced sound with excellent dialogue clarity. Highlights include well-rendered accordion pieces and vocals, though minor midrange distortion is noticeable during musical numbers. An isolated music and effects track is also available.

Extra: 16

The Blu-ray extras for 'Broadway Danny Rose' are sparse, featuring only the original theatrical trailer (480p, 1:07), a celebratory MGM 90th Anniversary Trailer (1080p, 2:06), and an isolated Music and Effects Track in DTS-HD Master Audio Mono, which uniquely includes sung elements, showcasing Dick Hyman's masterful orchestration.

Woody Allen's 'Broadway Danny Rose' on Blu-ray captures the film's charm with excellent 1080p/AVC MPEG-4 video and DTS-HD Master Audio 1.0 sound. This bittersweet farce showcases Allen's knack for balancing comedy and poignant character studies, featuring standout performances by Mia Farrow and Nick Apollo Forte.
