Can't find even a trailer!!

A review containing a fair amount of clips from the film (not sure if it contains any spoilers):

An interview with Roger Waters (Pink Floyd) regarding much of the soundtrack:

This will be a blind buy for me.
Now if we could just get a region free or A version of The Snowman.

Not familiar with this film, but intrigued by what I've read. Ordered...and looking forward it!

I wouldn't bet on it, Twilight Time seems to have made a deal with Channel 4 Films. TT also released Paul Greengrass's first film, RESURRECTED, and there's no UK BD of that in sight.

Going to head over to my local record store in a bit to see if they have this. Haven't seen it, yet I've always been curious due to the Iron Maiden song "When The Wild Wind Blows".

This is such an awesome film. Come on UK please release it. You'll never see an animated film like this one.....

Absolute master class

When the Wind Blows Blu-ray Review

Herry Dunston · 11-18-2014, 12:43 AM

This release doesn't have English SDH? Dang it!

cakefactory · 11-18-2014, 02:13 AM

Wow, those are some serious extras.

Nocturnaloner · 11-18-2014, 05:06 AM

One of the most depressing films ever made, hooray! Beautiful in many ways though. Glad to see it on blue ray.

The DVD Savant review claims that there are English subtitles.

TheBluNaco · 11-19-2014, 06:35 AM

I just ordered this.

I can always watch up until the 'Lipstick?' scene.

Well, I don't see them in the back cover, and in the description at the SAE site.
I'm afraid the no inclusion of English subtitles is a deal breaker for me..

Just checked my personal copy and can report that, unfortunately, there are no subtitle options, English or otherwise.

Got it today and overall a great job with this release. Plays fine with my region B-player, sounds and looks OK. But the extras - wow! Worth all the money in the world imo.

Very nice to know! This is one of the recent releases I'm looking most forward to seeing.

Anybody noticing a horrible echo to the effects and music in the main soundtrack? It doesn't occur in the isolated score.

Yes I had this same problem throughout. The elements looked pretty rough so I figured it was a bad transfer.

wonkavision · 03-03-2015, 02:44 PM

For those of you on the fence about a blind-buy, you can watch the entire film on YouTube.

Randall Flagg · 03-14-2015, 11:46 AM

Forgot this was even coming out!

So there are audio issues?
