What is the forum's opinion on this one? I only know of it because of Jerry Harvey's love for it in the Z Channel doc.

Kino announced a new MGM deal for 37 films, with 24 making their US Blu debut. Deal includes some former Shout/Scream titles and former Twilight Time titles. But no UHDs. Decade breakdown:
1950s - 4
1960s - 16
1970s -10
1980s - 7

Hoping some of these Twilight Time films in the new deal are Woody Allen films that go for astronomical prices on Amazon. Would love to see another U.S. rerelease of Crimes and Misdemeanors or Broadway Danny Rose.

Since I have all the MGM Allens on blu (via the Arrow boxes), I have no skin in the game, but my feeling is they aren't part of this package. Why? My gut tells me that a label like Kino, if they were buying the Allens, would buy all of them, and from that list it says there are 7 releases from the 80's, which doesn't even cover all of Allen's filmography alone from that decade.

I think the Kino insider said they were not available. Probably would be smart to release the 19 UA/Orion films in a box in the US, so that would have to be either Shout Select or Arrow US. Though, only Annie Hall and Manhattan are known to have new 4K masters and many of the films could use newer transfers.

The Children's Hour (1961) (DVD still available)
Film Noir: The Dark Side of Cinema 5-Film Set (Big House, U.S.A (1955), A Bullet for Joey (1955), He Ran All the Way (1951) Storm Fear (1955), Witness to Murder (1954)) (4-Film DVD set still available; doesn't include Big House, U.S.A (1955))
Marty (1955) (I think this disappeared a while ago; had previously been stated to have ~30 copies left)

Let’s hope one of those 1947s is the Web

It is indeed, 1947’s The Web is “coming soon” though no release date has been officially announced. Maybe in June based on other recent announcements. Great news.

Incredible. So what's the next biggest AWOL noir title--The Devil Thumbs a Ride?

That, Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye (despite being restored by UCLA), Great Gatsby, Anthony Mann's Strangers in the Night,
Journey into Fear...

[beamish14]

• Theatrical Trailer
• Dual-Layered BD50 Disc
• Optional English Subtitles

[FrauBlucher]

Journey into Fear is a Warner title

[swo17]

Anthony Mann's Strangers in the Night

This actually has a Blu-ray already from Olive

Oh, wow. I need to keep up more with the deluge of releases we get! I'll pick that up. Thank you.

My first thought was Riffraff and Quicksand even if the latter has a dvd

[swo17]

Those would both be great. The Window on Blu-ray too!

[therewillbeblus]

Yes, then parents would finally be able to get a hold of the best movie about the multiple perspectives of children compulsive lying that’s accessible to their POV (if they can ‘handle’ black and white)

[bad future]

Not sure if this was ever posted here, but Kino announced Borzage’s Desire in July of last year. Is it common for them to announce something on Facebook and then go so long without dating it?

[rockysds]

Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye also has an Olive blu-ray.

[Calvin]

The Sign of the Ram is one that I keep hoping will get a release. Hopefully on one of Indicator's Columbia Noir sets but I haven't heard any news on a restoration.

[rockysds]

Mitchell Leisen's Arise, My Love announced as coming soon.

[swo17]

Another great one, just discovered during the Wilder list!
