For me to shell out $50 and not wait for a price drop, it would have to be a very limited run with no guarantee of a reprint. Maybe Ben-Hur or Barry Lyndon. But I don’t see WB going that route with those titles.

I’ve seen Lawrence of Arabia at least 5 times in a theater, and have always appreciated the restoration credits. Those names are just as vital as David Lean, Peter O’Toole or Robert Bolt to the film in its current form. Without their work I would not have seen the movie. Plus I don’t know how...

In the States, only Branagh’s version of the three highest profile productions is on Blu Ray, and a poorly reviewed one at that. Would love to see Zeffirelli’s and Olivier’s best picture winner in blu ray, plus Branagh’s in 4K that would show off the 65mm photography.

Hitch's 125th birthday is in August, so hopefully we'll hear something from Criterion in May.

Recently got this from the Flash Sale. Not a big fan of the packaging either. The discs are exposed from the top. The bare minimum purpose of any case is to protect the disc from dust accumulation.

I really like this player. My only real complaint, is having a tv with both HDR 10+ and Dolby Vision, playing a disc with both formats it defaults to HDR 10+. You have to go in and disable 10+ to watch it in DV

Really was thinking that if they released a Vol 4, Funny Girl would be a part.

Disney has the international rights through 20th Century. So it’s in their interest to have a quality UHD.

I can’t wait until he finds out that The Man Who Knew Too Much is a remake.

I believe they delay announcements when the 15th falls on a Friday.

There is a DCP I happen to work for an Alamo Drafthouse that happens to be running a Hitchcock series this month. All of Universal’s Hitchcock titles were bundled in a hard drive, even though we only needed a few of them. Most of them were created in 2012, including Man Who Knew Too Much.

Robert, do you think technology is heading towards the ability to derive a workable restoration of the two-color sequence derived from fragments that survive?

I've seen a lot of criticism on the film's treatment of race. While there certainly are some problematic scenes that invite groans, I was always impressed with how forward thinking it was towards women and Native American issues.

Criterion only has The Front Page as an extra on His Girl Friday. I believe Kino has a standalone disc. The Criterion Nashville is OOP, but Paramount released their own from a newer image harvest.

Maybe include an Amazon link for glasses? Could that also be a revenue generator as well? Pay per click?
