Combined, fans will feel as if they were transported back to 1984 to experience every beat of this captivating film like never before.
To reimagine Purple Rain for this new Dolby experience, the film was completely restored digitally from an 8K scan of the 35mm Original Camera Negative (OCN) and the digitally restored picture was color graded specifically for Dolby Vision. The film's audio was also restored from the original Dolby Stereo tracks from over 40 years ago and, in conjunction with the 20th anniversary's 5.1 multi-channel mix master, used to complete a faithfully remastered Dolby Atmos audio presentation.
In addition to leading the film as The Kid, Prince also composed and produced the score and original songs. Purple Rain won the Academy Award® for Best Original Song Score (Prince) and the Grammy Award® for Best Album of Original Score Written for a Motion Picture or Television Special (Prince and the Revolution).
