Both are original Warner titles and the studio is celebrating its 100th Anniversary in 2023, so a 4K UHD release is a distinct possibility in my opinion.

Rio Bravo certainly needed some TLC.

Rio Bravo? Prepare for a 100-page pre-release Home Theatre Forum thread....

. . . . . and just the other day I posted in a different thread that a new 4K type transfer of Rio Bravo was something I really longed for! Many thanks for this very good news.

Hopefully, WB actually releases a blu-ray version of the 4K transfer for both films, unlike the UHD-only version of Giant they just did.

I agree! Should always be done.

This is a link to the announced films. I assume it will be updated as new films are added to the Festival line up.

90th Anniversary of "Footlight Parade"
80th Anniversary of "Shadow of A Doubt"
70th Anniversary of "The Wild One" and "House of Wax"
50th Anniversary of "American Graffiti", The Exorcist", and "Enter The Dragon"

These are some of the films at this year's Festival.

4K of Rio Bravo for me. I have the 3-D Blu-ray of House of Wax so not interested in a 4K 2D Blu-ray (although 4K is not mentioned.)

I also hope for a 4K restoration of The Wild Bunch, also the greatest western ever made.

More Festival news:

2023 TCM CLASSIC FILM FESTIVAL WILL HONOR PATRIZIA VON BRANDENSTEIN AND RUSS TAMBLYN ​

Each year the TCM Classic Film Festival pays tribute to a select group of individuals whose work in Hollywood has left a lasting impact on film. Von Brandenstein earned critical acclaim for her work on Six Degrees of Separation (1993) and the Academy Award for Best Art Direction for Amadeus (1984).

Tamblyn’s early training as a gymnast prepared him for one of his earliest roles in Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (1954) and he subsequently earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor in Peyton Place (1957). All four films will be screened at the Festival with introductions from von Brandenstein and Tamblyn. Both will sit down with TCM Hosts in Club TCM for extended conversations about their lives and work.

I have noticed that Hitchcock’s The Man Who Knew Too Much, is going to be shown at the IMAX theater during the festival. Does anyone know if this is restored and is a new 4K scan?

There's no indication of it being a new 4K restoration on the film's entry on the TCM Film Festival website, just that it's a DCP.

Universal is always tight lipped about it. Showing it in the Imax theater. I think Hitchcock Volume 3 4K is due in May....or did I dream that?

 

[John Gilmore]

The website says they are screening the “2000 directors cut” of The Exorcist..NOOOOO!

HBO Max has both, Rio Bravo and East of Eden in 4K/Dolby Vision. By the way East of Eden has Dolby Atmos audio.
