Alex Segal directed this television adaptation of Henry Miller's Death of a Salesman that comes to DVD with a standard full-frame transfer that preserves the original broadcast aspect ratio. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Stereo. There are neither subtitles nor closed captions on this release. Although there are no supplemental materials of any consequence, theater enthusiasts will want to see this as Cobb and Dunnock played these parts in the initial Broadway run of this landmark drama. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide
