Do I get native 4k ULTRA HD?

Yes. Tarsem Singh’s visually opulent 2000 sci-fi psychological thriller was captured on 35mm film by cinematographer Paul Laufer using a combination of spherical and anamorphic Cooke S4 and Panavision Primo lenses. Arrow Video’s release presents brand-new 4k restorations of both the Theatrical Cut and Director's Cut sourced from a 4k scan of the original 35mm camera negative, approved by director Tarsem Singh and encoded on a triple-layer BD-100 disc with Dolby Vision and HDR-10. The surreal dreamscapes, Eiko Ishioka’s extravagant costumes, and saturated desert palettes benefit tremendously from native 4k resolution and Wide Color Gamut (WCG), outshining the vintage Blu-ray in every respect.
