Ahoy, Mateys!
I don’t know about you all, but I made a big mistake letting my movie library dwindle and committing to the content on-demand craze. It was the future, ya know.
Now I hang my head in shame.
Studiocanal Will Help Us Look Less Like an Idiot
With a library boasting over 5,500 titles, Studiocanal has committed to restoring and updating several films in the past couple of years and has either given them a theatrical re-release or a release for the home market.
Included in the 4K re-releases next year are Breathless, The Elephant Man, Basic Instinct, Total Recall and Serpico.
Oh, and one little picture you may remember, Flash… freakin’… Gordon!!!
Some, but not all, of the titles will see a theatrical release as well. Jean Luc Picard’s… er… Jean Luc Godard’s Breathless will likely see a theatrical turn as well as David Lynch’s The Elephant Man.
Studiocanal will also release Gaspar Noe’s Irreversible: Straight Cut, The Red Circle, Three Days of the Condor and Ladykillers, amongst others, for the Euro market as well.
They have already released a 4K restoration of Apocalypse Now: Final Cut in the UK, Germany, and Australia. Hopefully, the US is not too far behind.
Give Studiocanal Some Credit Here
The 65 films they re-released in 2017 has grown to 217 films this year.
