Columbia Tristar is set to release Roman Polanski's version of MacBeth on the 7th of May, 2002.
According to Image's website, the film will be release OAR and OTS (Original Theatrical Soundtrack) so the image will be 2.35:1 and a mono soundtrack. Unfortunately (if Image's website is to be believed) the film will not be anamorphic.
I for one have been waiting for this title for some time, but am unhappy that they did not treat it to a anamorphic release, and with something more then just the trailer(s) as supplemental material.
One thing I vaguely remember hearing at one point was the fact that Polanski had to flee NA because of some sex charges he was facing, or a scandal of similar ilk (possible with a minor?). Does anyone know if this was true, or just my twisted mind mis-remembering things? If it is true, would this be the reason to hold back on commentaries, etc. They can be recorded else where, after all.
