IVL presents the film in an aspect ratio of 2.35:1, with anamorphic enhancement. The Digital Video transfer is obviously free of damage and presents detail and colours quite well.

Sole audio option is a Cantonese Dolby Digital 5.1 track but as I'm not equipped with such a system, my assessment of this disc aspect will be left off this review.

The English subtitles read well and doesn't contain any incoherence whatsoever. Traditional and simplified Chinese subtitles are also included.

A small array of movie-specific extras appear outside of the standard "FOCUS: First Cuts" content. The trailer for My Mother Is A Belly Dancer start things off and following is a 2 minute, 36 second Making Of (Chinese subtitled only). Quick shots of camera setups and director Lee Kung-Lok at work is worthwhile but obviously nothing of substance happens and the 10 image strong Photo Gallery is a one-time watch too.

FOCUS: First Cuts Showreel touts the project at hand, bombastically, and briefly promotes the films involved while a host of trailers for the other movies within the project (I'll Call You, The Shoe Fairy, Love Story, Crazy Stone and Rain Dogs) finishes off the disc. A postcard with either a Chinese language director's statement or Lee's story of women in his life that can be read on the "FOCUS: First Cuts" website is located in the dvd case. Back also shows a shot of Lee together boss Andy Lau.
