Questions about this item

Does the DVD generate noticeable heat or fan noise during a full 146-minute playback?

A standard DVD player runs silently; the disc itself produces no heat or noise, so playback of the 146-minute film is imperceptible.

What equipment is required to watch this R-rated 1980 title?

A DVD player or a computer with a DVD drive, plus a display with composite, component or HDMI input, will play the disc.

Will the disc work in an older DVD player that only reads single-layer discs?

The release is a single-disc version, so it is compatible with early DVD players that cannot read dual-layer media.
