Out of all available options BFI arguably delivers the best picture quality, although the source material has definitely seen better days. Criterion is essentially just a slightly filtered BFI transfer, both for video and audio. A more recent 4K restoration is available from Shochiku (JPN), which may look nice and smooth, but we also get a lot of image stabilization artifacts, overblown blacks and scrubbed detail. So for those favouring a clean, fresher look, the JPN disc is a go-to, while the GBR could be the choice for those who appreciate the crisp, authentic look of an untouched source material.
