Video

Arrow's new 2K scan generally looks excellent, if dirty. Scratches and dust frequently spring up in the image, usually minor. A few vertical scratches cause greater issues, if quickly.

Count Yorga's cinematography veers from exquisitely sharp to wholly out of focus every few seconds. Because of that, it's difficult to wholly gauge the new master by anything other than those high points. Detail pours out, resolving facial texture galore. Definition remains high, helped by rich, bold color saturation. Primaries glow at their best, and rarely veer from that state.

Superb grain reproduction keeps image consistency intact. That's a necessity as black levels never reach their deepest density. This means noisy shadows are a constant, but the encode isn't bothered.

Audio

Adequate mono replicates the cheaper recording methods decently enough. Rougher dialog and distorted orchestration date Count Yorga. There's likely little to be done given the source materials. The end result is plain, flat, and dry.
