Richard Loncraine's Richard III, is a very out of the box take on Shakespeare, and I believe it works.  The screenplay is from the fim's star, Ian McKellan and director Loncraine.

Twilight Time's new Blu-ray, is a nice looking product, with quality color, a decent amount of remaining grain and a nicely resolved image.

If you've not seen it, and have any interest in classical lit, it's worth your time.

How is it possible that there aren't more than 3000 Ian McKellan fans?
Maybe if they changed the advertising to "Starring Gandalf / Magneto" instead!?

Mine's in transit!

Edit: joking aside though, I thought TT said that this was doing well in pre-order sales. Have sales significantly slowed since?

Mr. Harris,


I believe the pre-order link you provided above for "Richard III" is for the 1956 Oliver version on Criterion -- and NOT the 1995 Ian McKellan version from Twilight Time that you intended. You might want to correct this error. Thanks!

Not involved. HTF autobots. Don't know the difference between Mills and Lohan.
