The Appaloosa (1966) with optional English subtitles
• Audio Commentary by Lee Pfeiffer, Publisher of Cinema Retro Magazine with Film Historian Paul Scrabo
• Reversible Art
• Theatrical Trailer

(1966) Color 98 Minutes 2.35:1 Not Rated
Southwest to Sonora rode the lustful, the lawless… living on the edge of violence! Screen icon Marlon Brando (The Missouri Breaks, On the Waterfront) stars in a tale of vengeance against a Mexican bandito and his gang of pistoleros. Matt Fletcher (Brando) has killed many men and sinned against many women. Vowing to give up his sordid past, he returns to his sleepy hometown on the Mexican border with a magnificent Appaloosa stallion. His hopes to start a horse ranch take a deadly turn when the Appaloosa is stolen by the sadistic bandit Chuy (John Saxon, Enter the Dragon, Queen of Blood), who controls the land with his bloodthirsty gang. Seeking revenge, Fletcher disguises himself as a Mexican and trails the gang back to their village. Barely escaping death, he flees with not only his horse, but also Chuy’s beautiful lover, Trini (Anjanette Comer, The Baby, Guns for San Sebastian). When the relentless Chuy stalks Fletcher across the desert into the snow-capped mountains in a final showdown, only one man will leave with the woman, the Appaloosa… and his life. Directed by Sidney J. Furie (The Ipcress File, The Taking of Beverly Hills) with a screenplay by James Bridges (The China Syndrome) and Roland Kibbee (The Midnight Man), based on a novel by Robert MacLeod (100 Rifles). Beautifully shot in Scope by Russell Metty (Spartacus) and co-starring Emilio Fernández (The Wild Bunch) and Frank Silvera (Valdez Is Coming).

Tell Them Willie Boys Is Here (1969) with optional English subtitles

• Audio Commentary by Actor/Filmmaker Pat Healy and Film Historian Jim Healy
• Reversible Art
• Theatrical Trailer

Color 98 Minutes 2.35:1 Rated PG
Tell Them Willie Boy Is Here is a modern western classic based on the true story of a Pauite Indian named Willie Boy (Robert Blake, Busting, In Cold Blood) and his bride Lola (Katharine Ross, The Graduate, The Stepford Wives), who become the objects of the last great western manhunt after Willie Boy kills Lola’s father in a “marriage by capture.” The manhunt, led by Sheriff Christopher Cooper (Robert Redford, Legal Eagles, The Sting), turns into a media circus when President Taft comes to visit the area and a mishap becomes twisted by the newspapers of the day. Released in 1969, Tell Them Willie Boy Is Here was a triumph for Redford and was called by Time Magazine, “A subtle, intense document of racial persecution that stands as one of the finest films of the year.” Written and directed by formerly blacklisted Abraham Polonsky (Force of Evil) and featuring stunning on-location cinematography by the great Conrad Hall (Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid). The wonderful cast includes Susan Clark (Valdez Is Coming), Barry Sullivan (Planet of the Vampires), John Vernon (The Outlaw Josey Wales) and Charles McGraw (The Narrow Margin).

What Ever Happened to Aunt Alice? (1969) with optional English subtitles

• BRAND NEW HD MASTER FROM A 4K SCAN OF THE ORIGINAL CAMERA NEGATIVE
• Audio Commentary by Film Historian Richard Harland Smith
• Theatrical Trailer

Color 101 Minutes 1.85:1 Rated PG
Oscar winners Geraldine Page (The Trip to Bountiful, Sweet Bird of Youth) and Ruth Gordon (Harold and Maude, Rosemary’s Baby) sharpen their claws on each other in this chilling thriller about a lost fortune, a mad heiress and a housekeeper hell-bent on digging up the truth. Mrs. Marrable (Page) is a society matron who's had some shocking news: her late husband left her only a stamp collection. Determined to maintain her extravagant lifestyle, she takes advantage of an unlikely new source of income—her housekeepers, by robbing them not only of their life savings, but also their lives. The turnover rate for help speeds faster than a revolving door... until Mrs. Marrable's latest hire, Mrs. Dimmock (Gordon), develops a drive to unearth the terrible secret buried in the front yard. Directed Lee H. Katzin (Le Mans) and co-starring Rosemary Forsyth (How Do I Love Thee?). Produced by Robert Aldrich (The Grissom Gang).

Coming January 15th on DVD and Blu-ray!

The Pink Panther Cartoon Collection Vol. 4 (1971-1975)
• 22 shorts in chronological order (63-84) - All with original audio (no laugh tracks)
• Audio commentaries for 12 selected shorts, by author Mark Arnold, historian Jerry Beck, filmmaker Greg Ford and cartoon writer William Hohauser
• Pink Patter with Art Leonardi (14:53)
• Reversible Blu-ray Art

Color 138 Minutes 1.33:1 Not Rated
Having established himself as a bone fide TV star in 1969-70, the Pink Panther returns to the fine art of making theatrical shorts in 1971. Helping the Panther recapture his silver-screen luster are established directors Hawley Pratt (A FLY IN THE PINK), Gerry Chiniquy (SALMON PINK, PINK AYE), and Art Davis (PINK TUBA-DORE). Joining their ranks are veteran Warners helmer Robert McKimson (PINK DA VINCI) and artful behind-the-scenes DePatie-Freleng multi-tasker Art Leonardi (PINK PLASMA, PINK CAMPAIGN). Still in touch with the Temper of the Times, the Panther amusingly tackles a few then-trending 1970s topics such as environmentalism and animal-rights advocacy.

We're very sad to be losing a great partner in FilmStruck and hope the void it leaves will be filled, but as this ScreenCrush article notes, when it comes to the classics "your best bet is still the same uncool choice it’s been for the last 20 years: Discs."

Long Live Physical Media!

Does anyone know what's happening with Kino's blu-ray of Charly?

Thanks. Does Harry Knowles think it's cool?

Sweet Charity (1969) Starring Shirley MacLaine, John McMartin, Ricardo Montalban, Sammy Davis Jr., Chita Rivera, Paula Kelly, Stubby Kaye, Barbara Bouchet and Ben Vereen - Shot by Robert Surtees (Ben-Hur, The Graduate) - Screenplay by Peter Stone (The Taking of Pelham One Two Three, Charade) - From the New York Stage Production Book by Neil Simon (The Odd Couple, The Goodbye Girl) - Based upon the Screenplay The Nights of Cabiria by Federico Fellini, Tullio Pinelli and Ennio Flaiano - Directed by Bob Fosse (Cabaret, All That Jazz).

YES! When you mentioned you only had one musical coming from the Universal deal, this is the one I hoped it would be

I love SWEET CHARITY, and I hope Kino doesn't get rid of the film's original 4.0 surround sound mix. A 5.1 mix would be a nice addition, so long as the disc also has the original soundtrack, as it was intended to be heard in theaters. The 4.0 was available on the DVD release, and it's a great historical document.

Will these be released on Blu-ray at some point? I already purchased The Hitch-Hiker Blu from five years back (and every other release of the film, I think) but would love to see the new 4K restoration.
