Solid video. I had low expectations for the movie, but it has an amazing red herring!

The Iceman Cometh (1973, Kino)
Another good transfer from the American Film Theatre series. Watching the long version, it’s fascinating to see the brutal editing they did to get it to three hours. The cut portions, unsurprisingly, don’t match particularly well, but the sound is consistent throughout. Very nice.
A Delicate Balance (1973, Kino)
Looks great. No complaints.
The Mikado (1939, Criterion)
According to the booklet, Criterion applied DVNR for grain reduction and they did their typical hiss reduction. Regrettable, but their work doesn’t have distracting repairs and looks natural overall.
1926 Promo
Looks amazing! Clear and sharp, with wonderful grain and a generous bitrate.
Seeds / Vapors (Vinegar Syndrome)
Natural grain, minimal processing, if any. I like that Vinegar Syndrome is willing to let film look rough instead of pursuing current demands for flawlessness.
