cool, now I can pick it up in 5 years on a black Friday sale. [emoji30]

javi92 · 12-10-2016, 12:39 PM

I'm enough of a sucker that I'll probably pay full price for it, unless a UK label announces it in the meantime. Hopefully, Fox has done a new scan.

I didn't think this was ever going to get a U.S. release. Hoping for a commentary with Redman and Kirgo and if they include a guest. This release deserves one.

Please let it be a new HD scan. perfect spring time release.

One of the few Audrey hepburn movies I don't care for. Found it to be quite a bore.

Great early John Williams score!

Agreed. It sounds like a fun caper movie, but it's cloying and overproduced.

jlk5844 · 12-10-2016, 06:32 PM

Excellent, love that all the notable entries in Audrey's filmography are coming out on Blu-ray. We just need Roman Holiday, Love in the Afternoon, and The Nun's Story. Really surprised Roman Holiday isn't out yet.

Good stuff. The Czech release suffered from some serious compression issues.

Disagree. Hepburn and O'Toole have such great chemistry that I could watch them banter in that little utility closet for hours.

This movie is great fun!

There is a Spanish release, which I've had for ages. Not watched it yet. Haha sorry.

the spanish release is said to be a BD-R, and a very bad dvd rip.

this is one of my favorite movies ever! do we have more details about it? new scan? special features?

sea2000 · 02-27-2017, 09:05 AM

I like this movie a lot too. Wonder if they'll port over the DVD special features: a commentary by Eli Wallach and Catherine Wyler (the director's daughter), and A&E'S Biography episode on Audrey Hepburn.

When How to Steal a Million hits the gas and roars April 18 onto Twilight Time hi-def Blu-ray, you’ll enjoy not only the main course of this beloved soufflé in 1080p hi-def, but also a vintage Audio Commentary with Eli Wallach and William Wyler’s daughter Catherine Wyler, the documentary tribute Audrey Hepburn: The Fairest Lady and five-time Oscar® winner Williams’ delightful score on an Isolated Music Track.

You guys are not totally wrong but I gotta say this movie kind of won me by the time it got to the final reel. Hepburn is so charming that it's almost impossible to resist. It's fluff, yes. But the kind of fluff they just don't make anymore with this kind of star power.

Even though that's better than the awful DVD cover I still don't like it. Maybe it would look better if the colors were more natural, but it's still just a boring movie still. There's so many fun publicity shots to choose from that Hepburn and O'Toole did for this film if they weren't going to use the original artwork.

Here's a custom I made when I bought the Czech release:

TT cover art keeps getting worse and worse.
