Night Moves (1975) - Blu-ray Forum

Just saw this classic for the first time today, and I loved it! Gene Hackman is great as always. Would love to have this on Blu-ray. Anyone heard of a release date?

Crap! I got excited for a moment when I saw the subject line. Thought it was announced.

Balls! thought this was an announcement.

Great flick, needs a release ASAP.

Next year is the 40th anniversary so maybe it'll get a release then. Perhaps through Warner Archive if anything

Yeah, that's a great little movie. Haven't seen it in ages though.

Spot on! This is a great flick. A fine example of those sultry, private-eye thrillers of the 1970s. You can feel the opressive weight of the summer air on the gulf coast of Florida. It would look great on blu-ray. Great movie!

Agreed - love this flick. A great example of how good films truly were in the '70's, and also a great film to watch in the summer - or, if you want to be reminded of summer; the Florida coast may as well be another character in the film.

I'm a huge fan of the French director Eric Rohmer (The Green Ray, One Night at Maude's, A Summer's Tale, etc.) - though, I understand that his character & dialogue-centric films are not for everyone. So, I've always been amused by the line in the film when Hackman's character talks about going to see a Rohmer film: "I saw a Rohmer film once. It was kind of like watching paint dry."

Sorry about that! Been a while since I posted in the forum, so it ended up in the wrong section.

Let's hope the 40th anniversary next year will give us a Blu-ray release.

This is an example of needing someone like Criterion or Twilight Time to have access to the WB library. Warner has a great library and they sit on films. When they do release titles it is The Man Who Knew Too Little or what they are best at doing, re-issues.

A great film and one of my top blu wants.

Not likely to happens as Warner does not license its films, but for one or two.
