CROUPIER? - DVDfile.com forum for DVD, Blu-Ray, and HD-DVD

Does any one know when Croupier is coming out on DVD?

I saw it in May of 2000 and have not heard a word about when it is reaching video or cable. It's rather strange.

The movie is a delight. Would love to see Mike Hodges and Clive Owen do a commentary on it, together.

I know there's already a "Croupier" DVD available in Canada. Although, It isn't Widescreen.

Croupier is out on DVD, just rented it last month--but it's a bare bones edition and in widescreen. Great movie, worthy of better treatment.

Bowman, where did you rent "Croupier"? U.S.? Canada?

Courpier is not for sale in the US. Image signed an exclusive revenue-sharing agreement with Netflix for the rental of this title.

The date I've heard rumored for U.S. sales release is January 15th, 2002.

Unfortunately, Shooting Gallery films, the company who released the film theatrically has filed for Chapter 11, so there a chance this title will never be available for purchase on DVD.

I know Chapter 11 isn't death, but who knows what fine print is in Shooting Gallery's distribution contract with Image.
