Bertolucci's "The Conformist"... Will We EVER See It on DVD - DVDfile.com forum for DVD, Blu-Ray, and HD-DVD

I love this film. To me, this is right up there with Kurosawa's "Seven Samurai", Hitchcock's "Psycho," Lean's "Lawrence Of Arabia" and Leone's "Once Upon A Time In The West."

Here's hoping...

I ask every so often, because I would love to see this amazing film given the restoration, clean up and beautiful presentation it deserves, with a new transfer supervised by cinematographer Vittorio Storaro, ASC, AIC.

Considering that I believe Paramount has the video rights, at the rate they currently release DVDs, it should see a release in late 2014.

moviezzz,
Are You sure DVDs will survive till 2014?

By the way, "The Conformist" has been released by Japanese company (R2 NTSC) with a solid good transfer.

Hopefully it will be sooner than we all think. Our "local" (40 miles away

) arthouse showed a (supposedly) restored print a few months ago. I've been praying that this was part of some quiet build-up to a DVD release.

I think they are working on a restoration on it.
