The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby (2014)

One couple's story as they try to reclaim the life and love they once knew and pick up the pieces of a past that may be too far gone.

So I'm guessing this is the THEM version and we will be obliged to buy a separate release (or releases) for HIM and HER?

I believe so, I can tell by the running time that it's just the Them version. I haven't seen the film but I heard that it's better to watch the Him and Her versions separately.

The 'Them' cut though is a completely re-edited 123 minute version of 'Him' and 'Her' - um, yeah, if they release that and not the separate films = no sale.

I saw all three versions of this, and really enjoyed the experience each time. Though I prefer the separate versions more, I still see the value of the Them cut. I definitely recommend watching Him before Her though.

I want a Blu-ray edition, multiple discs, with all three versions. That will be the version to see and own.

I want to see this soon and hopefully we do get an edition with all three cuts, Him, Her, and They.

Well nothing has been announced yet. So there is hope.

Just got around to this. Spectacular film (s) and two of the best films of 2014. Day 1 Pickup for me (if both Him/Her are included and not just Them). I'll wait if it's just Them.

The current synopsis on Amazon implies Them.

In this “groundbreaking cinema” (Sasha Stone, Awards Daily), writer/director Ned Benson ambitiously captures a complete picture of a relationship in the beautifully relatable portrait of love, empathy and truth that is The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby. Once happily married, Connor (James McAvoy) and Eleanor (Jessica Chastain) suddenly find themselves as strangers longing to understand each other in the wake of tragedy. The film explores the couple's story as they try to reclaim the life and love they once knew and pick up the pieces of a past that may be too far gone. “The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby is refreshingly honest, and reaffirms one meaningful, often forgettable constant - no one single human holds the answers to life's greatest questions.” – Matt Donato, We Got This Covered. Screened for the first time at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival, Benson's latest version of their story combines his previous two films - titled HIM and HER - uniting their perspectives and taking a further look into the subjectivity of relationships.

Well TWC can't even be bothered to release THE IMMIGRANT on blu at all, so I shouldn't expect a loaded release of this title.

[GenPion]

This sounds like the kind of film that should be put out by Criterion (especially considering the three versions). I am not happy with the prospect of only one version receiving some form of home media release.

Potentially good news. Amazon has updated their artwork and it makes no mention of "Them" on the cover, and they also say it will have 2 discs. Much of the information that Amazon has up for a given title isn't that useful, but I can't think of a time when they had the disc count too high. That could mean a combo pack but the listing only says (BLU/UV).

Just read this as well. Maybe Them is on one disc and Him/Her is on the other?

to watch Him first and then Her - makes more sense, than the other way around.

[j128v897]

It has been announced the Blu-Ray will include all three cuts of the film.
