Kes(1969)Billy is a fifteen-year-old miner's son whose close bond with a wild kestrel provides him with a spiritual escape from his dead-end life. For more about Kes and the Kes Blu-ray release, see Kes Blu-ray Review published by Dr. Svet Atanasov on October 30, 2016 where this Blu-ray release scored 4.5 out of 5. Director: Ken Loach Writers: Ken Loach, Tony Garnett, Barry Hines Starring: Colin Welland, Brian Glover, David Bradley, Lynne Perrie, Freddie Fletcher, Ted Carroll Producer: Tony Garnett » See full cast & crew Kes Blu-ray, Video QualityPresented in an aspect ratio of 1.67:1, encoded with MPEG-4 AVC and granted a 1080p transfer, Ken Loach's Kes arrives on Blu-ray courtesy of Eureka Entertainment. The release appears to have been sourced from the same restored master which Criterion accessed in 2011 for their release of Kes. It was supervised by Ken Loach and cinematographer Chris Menges. I like the master quite a lot. Initially, I had only a copy of the old R2 DVD release of Kes in my library and the Blu-ray truly made it possible to appreciate the film in an entirely different way. The improvements in depth and clarity are quite substantial; the documentary qualities of the film are also a lot more effective. The color scheme is also superior, though I have to say that I think that some of the primaries come off a bit too aggressive. Grain is well exposed, never appearing unhealthy, and there are no compromising digital corrections. Lastly, overall image stability is excellent. (Note: This is a Region-B "locked' Blu-ray release. Therefore, you must have a native Region-B or Region-Free player in order to access its content). Kes Blu-ray, Audio QualityThere are two standard audio tracks on this Blu-ray release: English/Original LPCM 1.0 and English/Redubbed LPCM 1.0. Optional English SDH subtitles are provided for the main feature. The original soundtrack is the one I prefer, but I think that regardless of which one you choose you are almost certainly going to have to use the optional English subtitles. To be clear, they are quite different but on both the accents can be be very thick. Depth and clarity, however, are excellent. Some minor dynamic fluctuations remain, but they are part of the original sound design. There are no pops, cracks, audio dropouts, or digital distortions to report.
