I do hope Fox will release The Egyptian soon. One of my favorite films, with a great cast, fascinating story and wonderful music. Also, I hope Fox will issue the restored version of The Robe.
Wow! I had no idea this was available. Is it an actual officially licensed Fox version?
Does it include the Alain Silver & James Ursini commentary?
Alain Silver DVD Commentaries
And the Carousel Blu-ray that looks magnificent.
I suspect the sackings that occurred late last year have something to do with the lack of Fox releases.
The state of the economy wouldn't be helping either.
I'm sure you mean SOUTH PACIFIC which does indeed look stupendous.
I had to stop just a minute and start planning to import CAROUSEL from somewhere overseas.
Does it include the Alain Silver & James Ursini commentary?
Alain Silver DVD CommentariesNo, it does not include any extras on the disc itself worth mentioning, but a beautiful 34 or 38 page booklet. In Spanish, of course, but with many photos.
I would attach some screenshots, but the file size allowed is far too little. :frowning: Maybe, you can see them here: [Sonst.] - Sinuhe, der Ägypter... - Cinefacts But I'm afraid you will have to register to see them...
Fox has done this before. The Virgin Queen was available for in a U.K. region 2 version from April 2006, but was only released in the U.S. in April last year.
I bought a Fox region 4 version of John Huston's The Barbarian & the Geisha in March, 2006 that still isn't available in Region 1.
Then there are some releases officially licensed by Optimum from Fox in the U.K. such as Wild River that was assumed to be coming to R1, but it hasn't happened.
EDIT. I see I can buy this on ebay for £23.49 (free p&p). If I wait a bit it might be a bit cheaper.And sooner or later it will probalby appear on Amazon Marketplace, but it might be fairly expensive there too.
Yes, it does. As a German, I'm used to it, of course, and I actually prefer it to the 'jerking' of NTSC.
Same here! And everyone knows NTSC means Never The Same Colour!
Did your copy come with a slip case? The booklet is not inside the keep case, but next to it in the slip case. Actually, without it, the slip case should become too wide...
