What about DYS?

Where the FOX releases of the other Leone films (FOD, FAFDM, DYS) downmixes too?

They are all downmixes for the mono. And the fault is with MGM, Fox just puts the discs out that MGM makes.

For anyone living in the Washington DC metro area (Northern Virginia/Southern Maryland, USA). The American Film Institute in Silver Spring is going to running a Sergio Leone retrospective:

Fistful, For A Few and Dynamite are all 35mm. Sadly, TGTBATU and OUATITW are DCPs. They have run the extended 35mm print of TGTBATU many times there so I'm curious to see if the DCP is the new 4K. Anyway I'm there for Fistful and For A Few.
Also they are have a Bava retro also:

 So what's the best bet then? The German releases of DOLLARS 1 & 2, and the Italian release of DYS, and nothing for TGTBATU :(?

It's amazing the amount of personal time and effort that fans around here are willing to put in for no personal gain, while studios with millions of dollars in resources aren't.
