Cecil B DeMille's Cleopatra 1934

[Si Parallel Universe]

I'm ready for my close up now ....


Yep I paid £5.99 in Fopp for the Steelie alongside The Passion of Joan Of Arc for the same price too. Initially thought the latter was a pricing error because of scalping prices on bay of e .

Overlooked that information, thank you. Yeah , Eureka has put up a great release so I wonder how the new restoration looks. Might get when this hits below $12.99 based on the review .

Really miss those flash deals . Even though Eureka's Amz store doesn't offer international shipping anymore,I am not missing the current deals as sales catalog is not that big as it once used to be . In another update, Amz took my payment for the Caligari steelbook [glad that Amz has reserved this for me even though it went OOP many months ago] bundled with one of the pre-order items; I was about to cancel as the price is some £20+ but noticed it has an extra BD for special futures.

The sole reason I bought the Caligari Steel was because of the extra content and I even managed to get £20 for my old Blu thanks to HMV not reducing their price on the amaray and having still not opened it

So, given that Universal released a new edition of Cleopatra in the US, is there any chance that they might re-release it in the UK? Eureka's edition has been out of print for quite some time now.

Yup, I quite fancy this now, but the Universal release is bound to be multi-region (all Universal catalogue releases seem to be), I'll probably buy it from Wow.

I bought a nice used copy on amazon.uk in Nov for 12 pounds (US $21 w shipping).

Yeah, that would be a wise move by the current right holder but that is not very common,isn't ?
