has anyone heard anything new about the rumor that disney was selling the rights to criterion for a bluray release of this movie?
I haven’t heard anything of the sort but that sounds unlike something Disney would ever do. They don’t want the movie out there because they feel it will hurt their image (I know, it’s dumb, but that’s how they think). They have a beautiful scan of the film digitally archived and could do a quick restoration and limited release if they wanted to, but the fact is they don’t want it out there in any capacity. They wouldn’t sell it to another company to put it out. If they were ok with it being available to people, they would release it themselves.
