In the enthralling Blow Out, brilliantly crafted by Brian De Palma (Sisters, Carrie, Scarface), John Travolta (Saturday Night Fever, Pulp Fiction) gives one of his greatest performances, as Jack, a movie sound-effects man who believes he has accidentally recorded a political assassination. He enlists the help of Sally (played by Carrie's Nancy Allen), a possible eyewitness to the crime who may be in danger herself, to uncover the truth.With its jolting stylistic flourishes, intricate plot, profoundly felt characterizations, and gritty evocation of early-1980s Philadelphia, Blow Out is an American paranoia thriller unlike any other, as well as a devilish reflection on the act of moviemaking.Special Features:New, restored digital transfer, supervised by director Brian De Palma, with DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrackNew hour-long interview with De Palma, conducted by filmmaker Noah BaumbachNew interview with star Nancy AllenCameraman Garrett Brown on the Steadicam shots featured in the film within the filmSelect on-set photos from photographer Louis GoldmanOriginal theatrical trailerMore!PLUS: A booklet featuring an essay by critic Michael Sragow and Pauline Kael's original New Yorker review
