I'm hoping that Kino release another Jane Fonda classic that's long OOP on DVD, They Shoot Horses Don't They.

Excellent film. Hal Ashby's run in the 70s was right up there with Altman, Scorsese, and any other figure in U.S. cinema.

Oh, this is a great film! Saw it a year ago i think for the first time!

I'm all over this release.

Yes, I second this, although being a higher profile title, it would seem more of a candidate for a full blow restoration. Perhaps even playing something like the TCM film festival before being released on blu. Hoping, anyway.

Amen to that. I bought the LD box a few years ago, and it looks a lot nicer on a shelf than it does on a monitor. (Of course around the same time I also picked up Coming Home on LD, which I haven't even watched yet )

Very excited for this, any chance they can grab The Last Detail?

Wasn't there a rumor Criterion had this at one point? I'm probably mis-remembering. Would definitely love to have it on blu.

Never seen this one although I saw the Deerhunter many times.

[Illy Scorsese]

Very good film... I'm buying.

Why isn't "Klute" on Blu-Ray btw????

[MTRodaba2468]

I'll certainly grab this.

Because Warner Bros. hasn't gotten around to it.

Yes Indeed. Incredible film, nothing else quite like it.

+1

[Fred Sliman]

Awaited this one since the label was announced; hopefully Ashby's Bound for Glory follows soon.

[campbelldropout]

Glad to see the love for They Shoot Horses Don't They? Such a great film picked up a signed version of the laserdisc but I don't have a laserdisc player. Be great if they transfer that commentary.

I remember during the 1979 Oscars both "Coming Home" and "The Deer Hunter" competed against each other for the Best Picture award. "Midnight Express" was another movie in that category.
