SPECIAL FEATURES – 1.5/5

VIDEO – 3.5/5, AUDIO – 3.75/5


Twilight Time releases Oklahoma Crude with a 1080p high-definition transfer, which does have the cold, dust turn-of-the-century look down pat, and shown in its original 2.35 widescreen aspect ratio. While not exactly a brilliant video, still shows some okay detail and likely looked far better than any previous DVD releases. The included DTS-HD Master Audio Mono track is impressive enough with the sounds of the oil rigs as well as the clear dialogue levels.

OVERALL – 3.0/5


Overall, Oklahoma Crude is a very well done film from legendary filmmaker Stanley Kramer with an absolutely great cast that includes George C. Scott, Faye Dunaway and Jack Palance. This Blu-ray has respectable enough video and audio transfers and a fine commentary as the only bonus feature.
