I can't beleive no one has mentioned this (from DVD file):
After many delays and postponements, looks like that long awaited new Miramax Collector's Series release of The Beatles classic A Hard Day's Night will finally see the light of day on DVD on 9/24. Presented in a newly remastered 1.37:1 transfer with a remixed 5.1 Dolby surround track, this two-disc set includes plenty of extras: a new original documentary with more than 30 minutes of never-before-seen footage, another 20 minutes of behind-the-scenes material, not one but three audio commentary tracks with the cast and two with the filmmakers, the "Running, Jumping, Standing Still" short film, , a scrapbook, music retrospective, and trailers. Retail is $29.95.Unless my memory is failing me A Hard Day's Night is OAR 1.66:1, and the previously announced Miramax release which never materialized was supposed to be anamorphic widescreen. Unless DVD File has made a mistake, Disney has screwed us for real -- one of the most beloved films of all time -- Pan & Scan only.
The Dutch R2 release is anamorphic widescreen. Again, if DVD File's report is true, time to start a massive protest -- and to buy the Dutch DVD...
