PLOT SYNOPSIS<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Woody Allen\u2019s whimsical confection, A Midsummer Night\u2019s Sex Comedy<\/em><\/strong>, is a period-style romantic roundelay set in and around a stunning\u2014and possibly magical\u2013country house. The film focuses on a nutty inventor (WOODY ALLEN), his frustrated wife (MARY STEENBURGEN), a philosopher cousin (JOSE FERRER), his much younger fianc\u00e9e (MIA FARROW), a randy doctor (TONY ROBERTS), and a free-thinking nurse (JULIE HAGERTY)\u2014the possibilities, of course, are endless.<\/p>\n

VIDEO \u2013 4.0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A Midsummer Night\u2019s Sex Comedy<\/em><\/strong> arrives on Blu-ray courtesy of Twilight Time presented in its original 1.85 widescreen aspect ratio and shown with a 1080p high-definition transfer. The picture quality actually isn\u2019t half bad with decent to good detail levels while colors seem to be well balanced throughout. It\u2019s not the cleanest transfer with the occasional specs that would crop up every so often and some scenes show heavy grain especially noticeable in the darkly lit shots.

AUDIO \u2013 4.0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The DTS-HD Master Audio 1.0 track is surprisingly vigorous with strong dialogue levels throughout while ambient noises give the solo channel some depth, even if limited. Also available is stereo DTS-HD MA track outputting the sound effects and soundtrack.<\/p>\n

OVERALL \u2013 3.5\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Overall, A Midsummer Night\u2019s Sex Comedy<\/em><\/strong> isn\u2019t a very well known Woody Allen film and although it pales in comparison with Manhattan<\/em> and Annie Hall<\/em>, lacking the same charm, even quirky by comparison, I wasn\u2019t quite enamored with this movie as some though the performances by the supporting cast were quite good to go along with Allen\u2019s typically eccentric nature. The Blu-ray released by Twilight Time offers good video\/audio transfers while the bonus features were basically non-existent unfortunately.<\/p>\n
