Any more news on "1776"? (1 Viewer)

[John_Berger]

I know about the previous threads regarding the "1776" DVD and the rather ... uh ... inappropriate messages that got volleyed regarding the version of the move to be included.

Has there been any word since that thread regarding the actual release date of the DVD?

There is supposed to be a theatrical release first, but so far nothings been mentioned. I would guess the best time to release the film would be late June early July, but none of the upcoming movies web sites list "1776". Amadeus is coming this week, but this was also kept pretty quiet until a few weeks ago. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

No mention of running time or additional footage but hopefully it means a blu ray is coming.
