Czech Dolby Digital 2.0 mono* / 192 kbps

Subtitles: Italian & English

Menus available in: Italian


Special features:
 

  • Making of (34:41, in Czech**)
  • Excerpt from the US version of the film (5:06, in English**)
  • Gallery
    • Photos (3:55)
    • Promotional material (1:15)

    • "Ikarie XB 1 - film, který nám dal jméno,"
      an interview with director Jindřich Polák (PDF, 5 pages, in Czech)
    • Contemporary documentation (PDF, 2 pages, in Czech)

Notes: Only available in "Stelle rosse 2: La fantascienza della Cecoslovacchia" 3-disc set,
together with "Late August at the Ozone Hotel," "Who Wants to Kill Jessie?"
& 16-page booklet (in Italian).

As I expected, Noshame's edition of "Icarus XB 1" is a direct port of the older Czech release, a fact making visual comparison superfluous (i.e. the screengrabs are bitwise identical). Thus, at the bottom of this page, you'll find only one set of screenshots representing both DVDs.

Notes: This is a recording from STV 1's digital satellite broadcast.
Although it's cropped on both sides from the OAR 2.35:1 to 1.80:1,
it shows more information on the top & the bottom of the frame
than the otherwise flawless FEX disc.
