Too Hot To Handle (1960) in b/w !? (1 Viewer)

[Stephen PI]

According to information on Koch Vision and Amazon's website, the dvd release of this British 1960 film is b/w but in fact it was shot in Eastmancolor. I am not sure when the street date is but does anybody have any inside information on this title to confirm this?

Do you know for a fact that it wa shot in colour, or are you going by IMDB? IMDB often has incorrect information. Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide lists it as black-and-white.

Last year, when I was in England, I saw several 35mm reels of this film and it was in color despite the fact that the print was faded.

 

[Robert Harris]

My sources show the film as having been shot on Eastman Color stock,
most likely a late variant of 5248.

The original theatrical posters for the US release - "Playgirl After Dark" - indicate the film being in Eastman Color.

So what do you expect from Koch? A title properly transferred and mastered, and from a good source as well?

Dreamers....
