Lesli Linka Glatter's coming-of-age comedy Now and Then comes to DVD with a pair of transfers. The widescreen anamorphic transfer preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1, and is preferable to the standard full-frame image. Closed-captioned English soundtracks are rendered in both Dolby Digital 5.1 and Dolby Digital Surround. English subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include filmographies for the cast and crew, as well as the theatrical trailer. This is a solid release from New Line that will appeal to the film's fans.

The dialogue is in English, and the disc includes optional subtitles in English, French, and Spanish. No bonus materials have been included.

Optional subtitles in English, French, and Korean are also available.
