    Touch of Evil, High Plains Drifter and Double Indemnity 4K restorations

    Sorry Foxy, I was probably not as clear as I intended. Just to be 100% on this - I don't think a Bly-ray Disc in 1080p will look 'massively' better from a 4k scan than from a 2k scan. Yes, they should scan at 4k if possibly for archiving. Yes, when we get a 4k medium (source and display)...
