Overview

Boycott

Clark Johnson's docudrama Boycott, about the Montgomery, AL, bus boycott, comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that produces an image with an aspect ratio of 1.85:1. A closed-captioned English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Surround, while a Spanish soundtrack has been recorded in Dolby Digital Stereo. English, Spanish, and French subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include a commentary track recorded by Johnson, cast and crew biographies, and some historical background information about the time period portrayed in the film. This is a very good disc from HBO/Rysher.
