Man Push Cart(2005)Back in his home country of Pakistan, Ahmad was a famous rock star. Now a widower separated from his son and adrift in New York, he works long hours selling coffee and bagels from a midtown Manhattan food cart, engaged in a Sisyphean search for human connection and a sense of purpose that seems perpetually just out of reach. For more about Man Push Cart and the Man Push Cart Blu-ray release, see Man Push Cart Blu-ray Review published by Jeffrey Kauffman on March 2, 2021 where this Blu-ray release scored 4.0 out of 5. Director: Ramin Bahrani » See full cast & crew Man Push Cart Blu-ray, Video QualityMan Push Cart is presented on Blu-ray courtesy of The Criterion Collection with an AVC encoded 1080p transfer in 1.78:1. Criterion only set a check disc for purposes of this review, and so I'm not privy to any information about the transfer contained in the insert booklet, but Criterion's website mentions that this is a "High-definition digital master, supervised and approved by director Ramin Bahrani, with 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack on the Blu-ray". Several online sources state this was digitally captured with a Sony CineAlta, but the prevalence of dark settings can lead to a gritty and at times arguably slightly noisy appearance, as can probably be gleaned from several of the screenshots accompanying this review. In better lighting conditions, the imagery is decently detailed, if still occasionally on the fuzzy side. Fine detail on things like Ahmad's ribbed sweater can be quite precise looking. The palette looks skewed just slightly toward blues at times, but on the whole looks natural. Despite the prevalence of really dark sequences throughout the film, I noticed no major compression anomalies. Man Push Cart Blu-ray, Audio QualityMan Push Cart features a DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track in English, though there are occasional moments in what I'm assuming is Urdu, with optional English subtitles (see screenshot 16). The track provides good engagement of the side and rear channels in the glut of outdoor material where the bustling urban environment of New York City, even in the wee hours of the morning or the slowdowns of late night, can still offer a wealth of background ambient sounds. Dialogue is rendered cleanly and clearly throughout and there are no problems with regard to damage or distortion. Optional English subtitles are available.
