Who is it for? |
This trio of
films is a great starting place for newcomers to the Karl May Westerns
- it provides a contrast between the adventure tones of Silver Lake and the gritty, Western tones of Half-Breed and Firehand. However, anyone looking for the epic adventure films that the series is famous for will want to see the Winnetou series in box 3. |
Visuals | All films are in Original Aspect Ratio (2.35:1) and Anamorphically Enhanced. The picture quality is good, ranges from light to heavy grain throughout, and some print damage. Always Watchable. |
Audio | Parts I and II have German and English language audio, part III has just German audio. Generally sounds strong. |
Subtitles | German HOH English (this track translates the English soundtrack, so there are some discrepancies when watching the German as the translations are different) - only in parts I and II. |
Extras | All the discs include a collection of trailers. Disc 3 also includes:
|
Packing | Digi-pack in cardboard sleeve - the box is patterned and textured in the style of an old hardback book. |

Other regions? | There are other German DVDs of these films but without English language options. |
