1974 is the French release date I'll change that.

Sweet Lord. Don't want to jinx it, but I can't wait to watch a non-DNRed to Hell and back version of this film!

Droste · 02-01-2021, 02:22 PM

That one I will buy immediately

dcowboy7 · 02-01-2021, 02:27 PM

Yay a horseracing movie !!

Only 3 mnths till the derby.

Fat Phil · 02-01-2021, 02:34 PM

Oh sweet fancy Moses, yes. One of my all time faves. Endlessly re-watchable and with a trio of killer performances from Shaw, Redford and Newman.

"Tough luck, Lonnehan. But that's what you get for playing with your head up your ass!"

Universal have been on such a hot streak lately. Their remasters and encoding have been top notch and i'm hoping this'll be no different. Who'd have thought that Uni would be top of the heap when it came to AV presentations? If you'd have said that to me ten years ago, i'd have laughed you out of the room...and then kept on laughing.

Shrek as well, I love you Universal. People should really start to put more respect on their name.

HD Goofnut · 02-01-2021, 03:12 PM

Definitely in. It should put the frozen grain BD to shame.

Krynoid-Man · 02-01-2021, 03:26 PM

Great news. Hopefully it will have the mono track as an option this time.

singhcr · 02-01-2021, 04:07 PM

Saw this in 35mm two summers ago, I hope it retains its 70s grainy goodness. Solid film, wonderful score, immensely re-watchable and oh so much fun

tama · 02-01-2021, 04:16 PM

I remember when Universal started to make an attempt to restore and remaster their films but still couldn't lay off the DNR knob.

All quiet on the western front, the sting, to kill a mockingbird, jaws, out of Africa.

One has been rectified, let's hope the sting follows.
