4k _hot_ — Quadrophenia

In the first half, Jimmy’s London is dark oppressive. In standard HD, the dark scenes in the ballroom or the alleyway fights often dissolve into a murky, pixelated mess. In 4K HDR, you can see the dread in Jimmy’s eyes during "The Punk and the Godfather." The shadows are deep but not crushed. The neon sign outside the club bleeds light realistically rather than blooming artificially.

With the bump in resolution to 3840 x 2160, the human geography of the film becomes a character itself. You see the fretful acne on the young mods, the nicotine staining on Ray Winstone’s fingers as he plays the brute Kevin, and the cold, dead-eyed stare of Sting’s reflection as he combs his perfect blonde quiff. quadrophenia 4k
