Content Description
Japanese pressing of Clint Eastwood's 1993 drama A Perfect World, starring Kevin Costner and Clint Eastwood, with Laura Dern. An escaped convict takes a young boy hostage across 1963 Texas, pursued by a seasoned Texas Ranger — developing an unexpected bond along the way. Written by John Lee Hancock; music by Lennie Niehaus; directed by Clint Eastwood.
This is a 3-sided pressing (discs labeled 2 and 3 visible in photos — consistent with standard Japanese Warner multi-disc gatefold packaging where disc 1 is on the inner left). Presented in widescreen scope format, matching the theatrical aspect ratio.
This pressing includes 日本語字幕 (Japanese subtitles), translated by 戸田奈津子 (Natsuko Toda), one of Japan's most celebrated film translators — a detail appreciated by Japanese film collectors.
The back cover includes a full Japanese-language cast and crew breakdown, production stills, and a plot synopsis referencing Eastwood's Unforgiven and Costner's Dances with Wolves as context for the pairing.
