It's good that Magnolia are going to release it in SDR. Much has been said about that master including claims that they've rescanned the shots that don't have VFX but with so much processing over the course of the film it unsurprisingly turned out to be an upscale of the old DI. The Magnolia shouldn't be any different, so keep expectations in check but at the very least there won't be unnecessary HDR that exposes the limitations even more.
Thanks, nic. Since Curzon have it, I might wait. Mifunefan mentioned two months or so ago that he also saw a product code for a Curzon UHD of Mother someplace.

Orbit are stocking the Aussie import of Cheerleader though you'll have to subscribe to their notifications as they are waiting on new stock to arrive.
MannFan, I thought I had added Pat Garrett to the OP but I never did. Oops. Pat Garrett and Billy The Kid (Criterion)

Saw that post too, what a happy surprise. I asked Orbit if they'll stock it and let you know their reply. Worth reiterating that it's one of those "HDR10 better than DV" discs, like Criterion's Days of Heaven UHD.
This is the first time I am hearing that about Days of Heaven, why is HDR10 viewing preferred to DV there?
