I wonder if this will actually have some decent extras on it? I can't think of another film that's had no many re-releases with so little actually added.

Does anyone know if a new transfer was used when this was screened at the 2016 TCM Classic Film Festival in April? If so, would like to see that version on disc instead of just another Paramount repackaging. Was really hoping any new editions would be coming from Sony or Criterion too due to their licensing of the other Capra classics.

Very interested to hear more about this!

I'd love to have matching digibooks of Mr. Smith Goes To Washington and It's a Wonderful Life on my shelf!

Maybe they'll fine add lossless audio.

The Great Owl · 07-23-2016, 04:19 PM

I love this movie, and I collect Gloria Grahame films, but I won't double-dip unless this upcoming release has some notable improvements with the transfer. The existing transfer is pretty awesome as is, though.

I'm not interested unless this will be a 4k scan.

gumbyx · 12-05-2016, 03:52 PM

Colorized?

The package has a colorized version and the original black and white.

Clicking on that link, what the hell's the deleted 'Uncut DVD'? George Bailey goes commando in Bedford Falls with a flamethrower and crossbow?

Matches the UPC on this release ...

Nothing special really. Looks like they were using the term "uncut" very loosely ....

Just curious about this and one of my favorite X-mas film. Donna Reed and Gloria Grahame so gorgeous in the movie. So anyway I never own Blu-ray yet and one day for me.

No, this UNCUT version is the one where George Bailey grabs a baseball bat and goes all NEGAN on Mr.Potter at the end. It was too brutal for a holiday film, so they edited it out and kept it FAMILY FRIENDLY!

Who knows? No one will. This is the last known picture of the canister containing the ending.

You're both right

And that's not even the weirdest part! The film was meant to be something more different:
