Long Day's Journey Into Night 3D/2D (2018) from Drakes Avenue Pictures

[Rutger Lundgren]

Long Day's Journey Into Night 3D Blu-ray

Bi Gan's celebrated second feature is apparently getting a UK release in less than two months, courtesy of Drakes Avenue Pictures. However, unlike the US and French releases which came on 2 discs, featuring both the 2D and the 3D version of the film, this appears to be a single disc 2D-only release. That's quite a disappointment, even for someone who normally doesn't care about 3D, since the 55-minute single take 3D sequence is one of the film's most talked about points. Ironically, it's mentioned even in the Amazon's product description:

Does anyone have more information about this one? Maybe the currently available info is just a placeholder? I haven't been able to find much of note, due to Drakes Avenue Pictures seemingly having no internet presence (but they might be somehow related to New Wave Films, who are distributing the film in cinemas?). While I'm definitely glad that it's being released at all, I really hope that this is not all we'll be getting come March.
