Bei dieser DVD handelt es sich um einen UK-Import mit der ungeschnittenen Originaversion ohne deutsche Tonspur. In Deutschland gibt es ihn (noch) nicht ungeschnitten fürs Heimkino. Er ist in bei uns ungekürzt ab 18 Jahren freigegeben und läuft, da es keine vollständige deutsche Synchronisation gibt, im deutschen TV immer in einer stark gekürzten Fassung, meist im Nachtprogramm. This warts and all UHD transfer, supervised by Mike Hodges, is a marvel. The film is given new life by accentuating the detail that so informs the story. Having said that, there are plenty of special features to enjoy, including audio commentaries with Hodges and Caine, a recent interview with the director at the BFI, and an insight into Budd’s career. Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (software uniformly simulated HDR) , A much better trailer that hints at plot points that it savvily avoids revealing, and includes a few quotes praising the film, including one from enthusiastic fan, Edgar Wright.

The Ship Hotel – Tyne Main (1967, 33 mins): Philip Trevelyan’s evocative documentary film about a pub on the banks of the River Tyne Mike Hodges in Conversation (2022, 60 mins): the director discusses his career in this interview recorded at BFI Southbank

In case you need a reminder, it's this: "You're a big man, but you're in bad shape. With me it's a full time job. Now behave yourself." BFI’s notes on their restoration state it is primarily sourced from the 35mm original negative, but portions had been replaced with sections of the duplicating negative, more than likely due to damage. For these portions BFI were able to source the yellow, cyan and magenta protection Promaster elements, made from the original negative. BFI also notes that the film’s “final look”—which I assume includes colour grading—was based on previous restorations/releases from 1971, 1999 and 2014. Sidebar note: I just saw a gloriously immaculate wide, wide, widescreen digital projection of the 1969 The Italian Job at the Turner Classic Movie Festival, with stereophonic sound. I hope this means it might appear on Blu-ray this year. Throughout the entire process, director Mike Hodges was consulted and signed off the final restoration.

Hardcore fans (like ME!) who want the real deal now have a way to get it. Do you think you could update your review with an additional footnote/notice? Thank you sir for your consideration! -- Jeffrey Nelson aka WaverBoy aka Serious Michael Caine Fan (11.07.14). The Ship Hotel - Tyne Main (1967, 33 mins): Philip Trevelyan’s evocative documentary film about a pub on the banks of the River Tyne The Ship Hotel - Tyne Main - this documentary about a pub on the banks of the River Tyne was produced by Philip Trevelyan in 1969. In English, not subtitled. (34 min). Wrong!

Wood first writes up a brief bio about the composer before reprinting interviews he conducted with musicians Barry Adamson, Matt Johnson, Jah Wobble, and writer Bob Stanley, each participant explaining how Budd’s work has influenced them or impacted film scores since. It’s one of the more extensive and well-researched pieces on Budd I’ve read. Das ungelenke Remake mit Stallone sieht, obwohl in den 2000er Jahren gedreht, gegen diesen über 40 Jahre zählenden Klassiker einfach nur alt aus. here, although the screencaps do not fully convey the extent to which the grain moves in film-like patterns to convey detail within the image.

This two-disc BFI Blu-ray edition includes a treasure trove of bonuses: documentaries, interviews as well as fascinating audio commentaries from Hodges, Suschitzky and Michael Caine, shedding much light – and a good dose of humour – on the spontaneous way in which the film was shot, with no story-board, just going with the momentary flow. The BFI also include a really well put together book, with great photos and illuminating articles about various aspects of the film and the creative team. clear to my ear, but for others the fear of the original American distributors may be justified, i.e., the hallmarks of the typical American crime film is the presence of a moral center. In the classics The nightclubs, the miniskirts, the parties, and the cars (there is a sublime Sunbeam Alpine) are sharply contrasted with the grim melancholy of bingo halls and the defiant yet slightly pathetic marching of the majorettes.Like seeing it for the first time”, might be a clichéd saying, but with regard to this new print, it really is. Color / 2:35 enhanced widescreen / 112 min. / Street Date April 22, 2014 / available through the Warner Archive Collection / 14.97 In this second commentary, which is new to this release, novelist and author Kim Newman and author of British Crime Film Barry Forshaw provide an equally busy enthusiasts' view of the film and its production. Forshaw nails his colours to the mast at the start by proclaiming this the best of all British gangster films, while Newman suggests it's more a film about gangsters rather than a gangster movie, and is closer in tone to Jean-Pierre Melville's Le Samouraï, and both note parallels to John Borman's Point Blank. The two men bounce off each other engagingly and cover a considerable amount of ground, including Ted Lewis's source novel and its sequels, the lead actors (particularly Caine and Ian Hendry), the British gangster's attachment to his family, the notion that this is not a misogynist film but a film about a misogynist world, Mike Hodges' varied career and his follow-up film Pulp, Roy Budd's score, British critical reaction, and lots more. Forshaw notes that Michael Caine's performance is as important to the success of the film as Mike Hodges' direction, and Newman wonders why a film that is essentially about a character circling the drain is so much fun. Another excellent companion to the film. DISCLAIMER: This review's compressed, resized screen captures are strictly decorative and do not represent Blu-Ray's native 1080p resolution.
