Editorial Review of DVD
Peter Werner's drama Mama Flora's Family comes to DVD with a standard full-frame transfer that preserves the original broadcast aspect ratio of 1.33:1. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Stereo. There are no subtitles, but the soundtrack is closed-captioned. There are no supplemental materials of any consequence, marking this as a by-the-numbers release from Artisan. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide
