The Blu-Ray was developed as a high-definition successor to the DVD and offers a significantly increased data rate and storage capacity compared to its predecessor. Blu-Rays can therefore store movies with significantly better resolution and offer enormously high picture quality on corresponding screens. Blu-Ray players are usually backward compatible with DVDs, so that they can also be played.

Reviews

Lexikon des Int.Films: "Zwei Rancher und ihre Familien leben wegen einer Wasserstelle und des sich daraus ergebenden Streits um die Wasserrechte in unversöhnlicher Feindschaft. Episch breit entwickelter Western, faszinierende Landschaftsaufnahmen, hervorragende Darsteller, hohes Maß an innerer Spannung."
