Special Features: Isolated Score Track / Audio Commentary with Director Alan Parker / Original Theatrical Trailer

Quote:

Director Alan Parker’s Mississippi Burning (1988) tells the real-life tale of three young Civil Rights workers murdered in deep-South Mississippi, focusing on the FBI agents (the great Gene Hackman and the wonderfully subtle Willem Dafoe) who arrive to investigate the crime. Also starring Frances McDormand and Brad Dourif, the film features a lacerating screenplay by Chris Gerolmo, cinematography by Peter Biziou (Richard III), and a score by Trevor Jones, available on this Twilight Time release as an isolated track.

Out of principle, or because you can't afford it?

HD Goofnut · 01-10-2015, 05:17 PM

I'll gladly pay $30 for this one. Not only is this one of Hackman's best roles, but I am a MS native.

The Great Owl · 01-10-2015, 05:17 PM

Sweet movie! I saw this back in the day, and it was quite a shocker for the time.

My favorite Hackman performance. A definite day one pre-order.

Great, another person missing out on a movie they love because they're cheap.

That's an assumption better left at the door.

Kriztoffer Swank · 01-10-2015, 07:42 PM

Absolutely love this movie. Can't wait to upgrade from the DVD.

javi92 · 01-10-2015, 08:29 PM

Excellent news! Can't wait to get my hands on this.

obscureguy · 01-10-2015, 09:45 PM

Great news, this was also on my "wish list" of films not yet on blu. Will absolutely pre-order this once I can.

Lol no, how about you wait for another territory to release with doubtless a better encode cheaper?
Just because it costs more didn't mean anything.

Great movie, but I definitely agree it's not really a $35 movie (for me). You have to be a pretty great genre movie I'm going to watch over and over to earn that kind of money.

At least for now. Ask me again when 4k blu is a super niche format.

I agree about the price, but in my case it's worth it. I've seen the DVD about 6 times if not more, plus I absolutely love the soundtrack to it as well. I maybe have a dozen movies that I can watch repeatedly, and this is one of them.

Good to see a comment like this within the first 5 posts. No TT thread is complete without them!

I see your side of it, but it is true that seeing posts about the price in so many Twilight Time threads does get old. We get it by now that not everyone likes the fact that their releases cost $30 plus shipping.

Anyways, I'll definitely be pre-ordering this. Hopefully something else I want will be available to order then so the shipping isn't quite as bad.
