Behind-The-Scenes

Quote:

The day TV 8 visited the set of Some Like It Hot at Hotel del Coronado September 8, 1958. Marilyn Monroe with her husband playwright Arthur Miller, Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon, Director Billy Wilder, and a cast of curious, excited locals watching magic unfold. Beautiful crystal clear film dug out from the vault after 62 years!! Enjoy!!

The first Billy Wilder 4K?

Yes.

BluProofie · 08-29-2021, 03:03 PM

Was hoping their 50s title would be something that didn’t already have a great release.

Will be sticking with the Criterion, wish we were getting Double Indemnity instead.

I just blind bought the Criterion, but I'll watch it before this releases and see if it's one I'd like on 4K. Would love The Apartment on 4K! Arrow, where's it at?

I gave up on any Academy-like UHDs from Arrow after Academy folded.

Yeah, it's unfortunate about that. Maybe Criterion could make it one of their 4Ks in the future.

Oh boy. Another triple-dip.

Is this Marilyn Monroe’s official UHD debut?

dallywhitty · 08-29-2021, 03:13 PM

This is one of those beloved titles which has been on my watchlist since the beginning of time. I've never seen it...

Nori · 08-29-2021, 03:13 PM

Why is there two threads for this?

Anyway I'm hyped for this UHD!

God, forgive me...

I'll more than likely pre-order the Kino UHD, but between this and Misery, Silence, Hard Target, Eastern Promises, etc, I'm gonna run out of dollar bills and be livin' on the street!
