The DTS-HD MA 5.1 surround audio of "Tamara Drewe" delivers a clear and immersive experience with precise dialogue front center, natural countryside ambience in the surrounds, and robust LFE during rock concert scenes. The mix is well-rounded, capturing both subtle environmental sounds and dynamic musical elements effectively.

Tamara Drewe's Extras provide lighthearted anecdotes in the audio commentary by Gemma Arterton and Luke Evans, though lacking the technical depth a director might offer. The 'Making of' and 'Reconstructing' featurettes delve into the transformation of Posy Simmonds' graphic novel into film, highlighting the directorial vision and creative process.

Movie: 58

The Blu-ray of 'Tamara Drewe' offers a visually stunning 1080p AVC/MPEG-4 transfer with sharp colors and contrast, and a DTS-HD MA 5.1 audio mix that delivers crisp dialogue and immersive soundscapes. The well-directed film by Stephen Frears features a complex, witty narrative, though its focus on superficial charm weakens its emotional depth.
