I took a chance that this title is in its 1.85 ratio as it's now selling for $16.45.

Yes, Olive did the right thing and you can tell it in every single cap, even though the Beaver still equivocates as to its correctness, which is just dopey.

My copy is on the way...thanks to information here from the knowledgeable aficionados of HTF, I was at least 99 and 44/100 % sure this would be given the correct presentation that Odds Against Tomorrow deserves...now I can rest easy thanks to you guys, and look forward to seeing it for myself next week!

I'll have my copy today so I'm going to watch it right away.

I have it but haven't had a chance to look at it yet. I also have the R2 Blu-ray and will see how they compare.

Five weeks ago I had a chance to meet Ed Begley Jr. and he brightened up when I told him that Odds Against Tomorrow is my favorite among his father's films. He was only 9 years old but he vividly remembers accompanying his father to Hudson, N.Y. for the filming of the bank robbery scenes. I told him that I was in Hudson recently and that the bank is still there, but with a new name.

It's a favorite of mine, so naturally I already have the BFI edition... but in the interest of completeness I ordered the Olive edition too.

Well, I didn't watch it until last Saturday. A great looking disc. Amazon is price-matching Best Buy at $12.99. but Amazon is out-of-stock. Best Buy only has it available for shipping so to get free shipping you will have to combine it with something else to hit the minimum amount for free shipping.

Watched this on TCMHD Saturday evening, looked good. I will probably get the Olive release.

You'll want to do so in order to see it in its OAR.

I was wondering why TCM was showing it in 1:33.
Enjoyed Eddie Mueller's talk after the film. Interesting how Robert Ryan- who was great at playing violent bigots- was in real life a progressive, who many described as one of the kindest, gentlest men they have ever met. Ryan and Harry Belafonte had a very close friendship until Ryan's death

I watched this one on Blu-ray this afternoon, and even though it was on TCM not that long ago, I certainly enjoyed it more in the correct aspect ratio. Such a taut, gripping film. Love caper movies like this. You just know something is going to go wrong, and you wait to see where the dominos will begin to fall.

It's the type of a caper film in which you think about it long after seeing it.

I bought this blind (the Olive release) and I’m glad I did. I watched it a couple of months ago and I still think about it from time to time. Most films I view I’ll forget about after a few days. Not this one. Very powerful and well acted by all. Robert Ryan in particular is top notch.
