Anybody get theirs today? Same transfer as the German BD?

You should see him in Streets of San Francisco then.

I got my copy today, I never splurged on any of the euro releases even though I was close to doing so in the past. I really like this film. I just love classic Jane Fonda. If only WB will release KLUTE. Warner Archive I'm hoping

Michael Douglas looks so young in this. It's like looking at a bearded baby.

I have it and watched it as well. I have to say I thought this blu looked great but I have also decided that I am too easy a grader of blu-rays. I only really have one criteria and that's "Does this blu-ray give me the best presentation of the film I have ever seen in my home?" and the answer in this case was "Yes, by far."

In truth most blu-rays do.

Honestly, I can't recall my viewing in the cinema but I thought this really looked like what the film should look like. Plus it was in great shape for a film from the 1970s...looked like they could have shot it yesterday.

Have not seen the German blu, like Jack I almost ordered it but waited expecting a US release. I'm a sucker for the thriller genre particularly ones from the 1970s and watching this and the recently released Last Embrace was fantastic. So, can't compare it to the German release but I think any fan of the film will find this release a keeper.

Given that it's exactly the same packaging, except in English, I'd say it's the exact same disc, as is the case with Columbia titles.
