Get Carter 4K UHD (1971)

[Fat Phil]

4K restoration of Get Carter coming to UHD and Blu-ray from the BFI on 1st August 2022 (Delayed from 25th July)

We’re excited to announce the forthcoming re-release of director Mike Hodges’ seminal Get Carter, starring Michael Caine, in cinemas in the UK and Ireland on Friday 27 May 2022. A partnership with Warner Bros. Pictures and Warner Bros. Entertainment UK Ltd has enabled the film to be newly restored in 4K by the BFI for theatrical and home entertainment release. Using the original 35mm camera negative, the restoration will be approved by Mike Hodges himself.

As well as screening in cinemas around the country, the film will have a two-week extended run at BFI Southbank as part of the Mike Hodges retrospective, Return of the Outsider: The Films of Mike Hodges running from 1 to 31 May 2022. The season will feature special in person events, including Mike Hodges in Conversation on 3 May, and showcase his distinctive and eclectic body of film and television work. We will then release Get Carter on UHD (Ultra High Definition) and Blu-ray on Monday 25 July 2022 with accompanying special features.

Nice!

This has been on my watchlist since the beginning of time. Interesting that the BFI and WB are working together again. I know I'm setting myself up for disappointment, but a UHD of The Devils would create world peace.

Oh lawdy yes please! And don’t mess up the audio this time.

[grahams76]

Incredible news. One of the handful of stone cold classics of UK '70s cinema. I remember buying the video reissue on release day in 1994, one of the first times I ever did a 'day one' (pre-internet, obviously).

It will feature an Atmos track of the new American dub with the role of Jack Carter voiced by Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson. And only that track.

[Sky_Captain]

And on my birthday too.

This is amazing news, but the best part is that it's getting done while Hodges and Caine, (along with other members of the cast) are still with us and will hopefully be participating in the extras, in addition to Hodges approving the new 4K master.

Atmos: It's Just Betterer™️

[Gacivory]

Shamefully I’ve never seen this, but will preorder the 4K.

Sniff sniffy sniff... that unmistakable new UHD and restoration thread smell.

Lovely. Simply lovely.

Definitely heading up north for this grimey crimey.

[Mister_Kidd]

BFI is 3 for 3 on UHD releases in my book.

[Dubliner1]

Excellent!!

[mindset]

Yes please Caine was often good, but he was excellent in this. Wonder if WB would let them have The Man Who Would Be King too?

[TheOneWithThePrize]

Figures, only a few weeks since I caved and got the blu-ray...

[The Great Escape]
