It already is. It was releases in October 2009 in Scandinavian countries. Nevertheless, Kino's release will be better. :P

Fantastic news, indeed.

Excellent!

Kino has already stated that they also intend to eventually release Our Hospitality, Sherlock Jr., and the restored Metropolis. Hopefully there are many more (Caligari, Nosferatu, Seven Chances, etc.) to come!

Their Blu release of The General was terrific.

Yep. As one of my favorite films, I snatched that one up when it came out.

This is great news, and that cover art is all kinds of awesome!

McCrutchy · 01-29-2010, 08:54 PM

I don't know why, but I've never liked or appreciated this film at all; I find it very shallow.

repete66211 · 01-29-2010, 08:54 PM

I'm not a fan of the movie as far as entertainment value goes. I've seen it more than once and that's enough for me. However, that may be the coolest case artwork I've ever seen.

I need watch many Soviet Movies on Blu-Ray! When soviet movies releases on Blu-Ray?

I'm confused: this isn't supposed to be out until the 20th, but Kino shipped my copy a couple weeks ago. It arrived on Monday the 12th.

I know companies usually ship pre-orders early, but this seems a bit too early.

Yah, your standard blue BD case. Although it does come in a kind of boxed-set protector.
