Let’s hope one of those 1947s is the Web

It is indeed, 1947’s The Web is “coming soon” though no release date has been officially announced. Maybe in June based on other recent announcements. Great news.

Incredible. So what's the next biggest AWOL noir title--The Devil Thumbs a Ride?

That, Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye (despite being restored by UCLA), Great Gatsby, Anthony Mann's Strangers in the Night,
Journey into Fear...

• Audio Commentary by Producer Don Boyd with Film Historian/Filmmaker Daniel Kremer and Film Historian/Biographer Nat Segaloff
• Theatrical Trailer
• Dual-Layered BD50 Disc
• Optional English Subtitles

[FrauBlucher]

Journey into Fear is a Warner title

Anthony Mann's Strangers in the Night

This actually has a Blu-ray already from Olive

Oh, wow. I need to keep up more with the deluge of releases we get! I'll pick that up. Thank you.

My first thought was Riffraff and Quicksand even if the latter has a dvd

[swo17]

Those would both be great. The Window on Blu-ray too!

[therewillbeblus]

Yes, then parents would finally be able to get a hold of the best movie about the multiple perspectives of children compulsive lying that’s accessible to their POV (if they can ‘handle’ black and white)

Not sure if this was ever posted here, but Kino announced Borzage’s Desire in July of last year. Is it common for them to announce something on Facebook and then go so long without dating it?

[rockysds]

Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye also has an Olive blu-ray.

[Calvin]

The Sign of the Ram is one that I keep hoping will get a release. Hopefully on one of Indicator's Columbia Noir sets but I haven't heard any news on a restoration.

[rockysds]

Mitchell Leisen's Arise, My Love announced as coming soon.

[swo17]

Another great one, just discovered during the Wilder list!

[senseabove]

Excellent news!

It does happen occasionally. Often it's related to the access to elements, and I know the pandemic shuffled some of their schedule due to limited or no access to some holdings.

Kino Insider said that they renewed 20 MGM titles from their 2014 deal and that a new Blu-ray of Marty from a new scan will be coming in 2021 or 2022.

Nice. Hopefully Marty will have both 1.37 and 1.85 presentations.

[Ribs]

Gotta wonder if some higher profile older titles like Long Goodbye or Taking of Pelham 123 could be getting UHDs if reissues are on the table.

[dwk]

The Long Goodbye will also be getting a new Blu-ray from a new scan in either 2021 or 2022.

Nice. Hopefully Marty will have both 1.37 and 1.85 presentations.

Kino Insider said that is the plan, to offer Marty in both 1.37 and 1.85.

[domino harvey]

Good, make everyone happy. Cue people not happy they now have a choice

[senseabove]

The Long Goodbye was also renewed and will be getting "a brand new 2k or 4k scan."

Will it still feature the complete version of the film like the last release did?

[beamish14]

I'm genuinely amazed that Kino Lorber has no interest in The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz. Oscar-winning star, recognized as a (regional) classic, has been released on VHS but never on DVD, etc.
Oh, well. I can still dream of a Criterion release, I s'pose.

Regarding Altman, I really do hope that MGM's O.C. & Stiggs gets a Blu. It's such an incredibly dynamic-looking film, which the MGM disc completely fails to show.
