Pillow Talk (1959) Blu-ray May 1st 2012 Pre-order - Blu-ray Forum

Pillow Talk Blu-ray

Allegedly the 1959 romantic comedy classic is coming to Blu-ray on May 1, 2012 according to the webpage DVD News Flash. Hopefully this isn't just a rumor and hopefully Universal has completely restored this wonderful film. Wish we could get a Digi-book.

Pirate King · 12-22-2011, 12:19 PM

I do hope this is true, would be a nice addition to my collection.

BluPat · 12-22-2011, 05:29 PM

Yes I love the 3 Rock Hudson/Doris Day comedies.

CoopFilm · 12-23-2011, 01:04 AM

I will definitely upgrade this. I own about 4 different DVD releases and don't need another copy of this....but I know I'll still buy it.

BarkingGhost · 12-23-2011, 10:35 AM

Please don't encourage the wife. She loves this movie.

P@t_Mtl · 12-23-2011, 10:42 AM

One of my dad's favorite. He always had a think for Doris Day (think colonel Potter in MASH)

TJS_Blu · 12-23-2011, 03:50 PM

May 1st was the date given on the list posted in the Criterion Forum earlier in December. Quite a few of the release dates and titles have been spot on. Here's the list posted on BR.com.

dsfan1 · 12-23-2011, 07:15 PM

One of my favorite Doris Day films! I hope Universal does a great job with the transfer.

I wish Universal would also release "Midnight Lace" which showcases one of a few dramatic roles Doris Day ever did. Midnight Lace wasn't even released on DVD in the US!

dsfan1 · 01-24-2012, 03:32 PM

I emailed Universal asking if and when Pillow Talk will be released. I also inquired as to whether or not the packaging will be in a digibook. I received the following reply:

Thank you for contacting us.

No date has been announced for the Blu-ray release of "Pillow Talk." A multitude of factors influence the timing and content of our releases. Unfortunately, no further information is available at this time.

For a listing of upcoming releases, please check our website periodically at: http://www.nbcuniversalstore.com. You might also wish to subscribe to our online newsletter for product announcements at http://signup.universalstudios.com/form/39.

We appreciate your interest and hope that you will continue to enjoy Universal products.

Sincerely,

Consumer Relations
UNIVERSAL STUDIOS HOME ENTERTAINMENT

Anyone know anything different? This site has a release date of 5-1-12.

I really hope one of my favorite movies will be released.

Arkadin · 01-24-2012, 09:36 PM

been wanting to see this one for a while.
the bd will be as good a time as any.

pate · 01-26-2012, 07:17 AM

That's weird, this is one of my top 3 movies of all-time and May 1 is my birthday. I've bought two DVD and a VHS release over the years and they have all looked run down to me. Hope it is a nice transfer.

BluPat · 01-26-2012, 07:29 AM

I've seen the date on several sites and this blog as well:

Really looking forward to this one. If done properly the colours should be really vivid on blu. I hope they don't take too long issuing the other Day/Hudson films and the ones she made with James Garner. Hudson's film with Paula Prentiss, Man's Favorite Sport?, deserves a blu as well

dsfan1 · 01-26-2012, 04:01 PM

It did sound to me like the email I received from Universal was a generic form sent out to people with questions about releases that haven't been "officially" set in stone. Hopefully I'm just panicking for nothing.

William H Pratt · 02-07-2012, 10:01 PM

I'll buy most any Doris Day film on BD. "PillowTalk" is DAY 1!!

BluPat · 02-08-2012, 12:15 AM

Day 1 for me as well! Now if we can get an official Universal Monsters announcement.
