Outstanding artwork. Hope this is a sign of things to come with future Hitchcock 4k single-film releases.

Are paint scrapes down to the steel in the back corners common on this one? Both copies I picked up have it, wondering if worth driving around or is it a waste of time? Both each have differing paint flaws, fwiw. One has a light black line of paint on the white and one has a light black line of paint near the side.

Common on the steelbooks in my area. The ones I saw had lots of scrapes on the front. It was the same with the white The Sting steelbooks. I also saw a few Animal House steelbooks with no paint on several of the corners.

I passed on all the copies at 2 Best Buys but then found a good one at a target that only had one scrape on the upper left of the front side right at the bottom of the j-card. All things considered not bad.

Is the $19.99 price at Target currently the best price for this?

Just a heads-up for those that missed this one. GRUV got i some in stock. I just received mine. It's currently OOS but keep checking.

Back in stock at GRUV, and currently $14.99.

That’s too cheap for such a great film and elite packaging.

I agree, but my wallet thanks me.

But I can also "get off my lawn" about those young whippersnappers who can't appreciate cinematic art that it wound up in the discount bin.
