While the City Sleeps R2 DVD
Exposure Cinema in the UK released Fritz Lang’s While the City Sleeps on DVD about three weeks ago. I finally had the chance to get my hands on a copy the other day and turned in a review of the disc for The Digital Fix. In short, it’s an easy choice between paying something like eight pounds for the R2 edition versus waiting for the Warner Archive to do its thing to the tune of $20 or even $25 at some point in the future. I’m so glad a company like Exposure is giving consumers an alternative to the Warner Archive model.
If you’ve not had the pleasure of seeing Lang’s film, wait no more. It’s a late career highlight for the director, and very much worth owning.
Exposure tell me that they’ll be releasing Beyond A Reasonable Doubt in July.
Amazon UK have Beyond a Reasonable Doubt up for pre-order for July 18.
Excellent! There were so many delays on While the City Sleeps that I’m hoping Exposure learned something and waited until the disc was done before putting out a release date.
According to Exposure’s site the specs for Beyond a Reasonable Doubt are:
1.33:1 open matte | English 2.0 | English HOH subtitles
Extra Features: Extensive stills gallery, trailer and collector’s art card
It also seems that Secret Beyond the Door is on the way from them.
