Got SUNRISE at last!! (1 Viewer)

[Douglas R]

Being in the UK I've not been able to obtain Sunrise. Some time ago I tried sending the mail-in certificate to Fox but they returned it saying they couldn't supply outside the UK. But....at last I've been able to buy it from the USA thanks to Fox now supplying it as a box set of Studio Classics!! It meant having to get duplicates of two films which I'd already bought (All About Eve and How Green was my Valley) but for $45 it's worth it because I've also now got Gentlemen's Agreement and can probably sell on the two duplicates. Thanks Fox...at long last! Mind you, it's a bit odd to find mail-in certificates in the box set telling purchasers that they can get a free copy of Sunrise!

Exactly the same story Douglas (and I know you mean Sunrise ) ; mine is winging it's way from amazon.ca, who very kindly have honoured a mis-price of $18 CAD including p&p for the box-set. At that price, I won't sell my dupes, I'll give them to friends.

Did you receive your box from amazon.ca? A lot of people have trouble with their boxes, because it contains the old DVD-version of "How green was my Valley", but in this case, amazon offers you to send a new box without the need of sending back the old one. Nice service.

Not got it yet, and I'm sure it will contain the old version. Still, one of the reasons I use Amazon is their 'nice service'

this one will come from the BFI

It's true that the BFI did most of the restoration of the film, but the DVD will be released by Eureka. They have already submitted the film to the BBFC, who gave it "U" on the 23rd of september this year - without any cuts being made.

Is there anything extra on the UK 2 disc that the R1 US dvd doesn't have?

I don't think that one is on the R1 version.
