The 60th Anniversary blu-ray of Psycho is nice in that its the uncut version, but the mono mix on it is just a downscale of the DTS X mix which is rather disappointing as the 50th Anniversary bluray had the original mono mix.
Universal corrected this. They issued replacement discs.
Yea after like two tries, first try was a different coded disk but used the same downmix, the second corrected disk has the true mono track
I got lucky and just got the second batch
Not sure if this will ever happen, but if anyone has the copy of Psycho, I’d like a copy of the mono audio through PM, please.
I once came across a 35mm scan that had the original mono mix, but the print it came from had a different framerate and had numerous jumps in cuts/missing frames.
