Description
Synopsis
The first ever 4K restoration of DON'T LOOK NOW, which was Nicolas Roeg's finest film and arguably - one of the best British films ever made! Starring Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie, this is a brilliant adaptation of a Daphne Du Maurier short story. On a cold, bright autumn day in Suffolk, England, a little girl in a red mackintosh drowns in a pond - the daughter of John and Laura Baxter. Trying to recover from the tragedy, the couple arrive in Venice, Italy, where John has been commissioned to restore a church. In the eerie atmosphere of the lagoon city in winter, they encounter two strange sisters. Laura is suddenly released from her grief when one of them, a blind psychic, tells her that she is in contact with her dead daughter. Angered and skeptical, John carries on with his work, but witnesses an unsettling vision of his own: a little girl in a red mackintosh disappearing into the Venetian alleys.
As Venice and his fate closes in on John, illusion, reality and sudden terror spiral the story to its grotesque climax, as the design in director Nicolas Roeg's mosaic becomes unforgettably clear.
Available as part of a 3 disc steelbook with exclusive newly commissioned artwork by Jeremy Enecio containing UHD, Blu-ray Feature, Blu-ray bonus disc with brand new extras.
For the 2019 restoration of DON'T LOOK NOW, STUDIOCANAL went back to the original camera negative which was scanned at 4K resolution in 16bit and created the following: 4K DCP, UHD version and a new HD version which were produced with the same high technological standards as today's biggest international film releases. The restoration and new UHD version was colour graded and approved in London by the BAFTA Award-winning cinematographer, Anthony B Richmond.

Zavvi had gone live this afternoon and later went sold out
Must have been a large bulk order done
I expect this will come back in stock with Zavvi soon in next few days

This is back to pre-order on zavvi, went live at 9am this morning, zavvi gave reason for delay due to issues with images on the listing.
I do like the art on this, a full front and back panorama, what a good steelbook should be like.

Love this art, will be interesting to see if they do anything with the finish - only seen this once but looking forward to watching it again now in its restoration
