In Paris yesterday, I bought new blu rays of THE LAST SUNSET( Kirk Douglas and Rock Hudson) and RIO CONCHOS.
Both look and sound superb with new transfers. It says region B but they both play fine on my region A player. Both have removable French subtitles.

Apologies - not to derail this thread, but while we've got Ken in Paris: any chance you've purchased Pathés 2018 restored Cyrano de Bergerac (with Gerard Depardieu)? I have the previous French blu from 2011 but I see now the BFI is releasing a region 'B' version in the UK. There's no information on the BFI website as to whether this is a restored version, or not.

Hello Ken, very happy to hear that, I thought that Sidonis always had unremovable subs, I'll be buying this. I love this western & have the Blu-ray in the very cheap US Timeless Westerns set, but the transfer is all over the place, sometimes looking good, but mostly pretty poor. Is this the one you're talking about?

Thanks, Alan.

Unfortunately it is in French without English subtitles, but it is restored.
