Manchurian Candidate, The | R1 |
The original US Region 1 seems to be identical to the Region 4, having the same transfer and extras, but with the added "bonus" of having a pan and scan transfer on the flip side. The UK Region 2 appears to be the same as the Region 4. There is a new US Region 1 Special Edition being released in July 2004 to coincide with the new film. In addition to the existing extras, there are two featurettes: one with William Friedkin and another with Angela Lansbury, as well as a photo gallery. Most importantly though, this edition features a 16x9 enhanced transfer, so if I wanted to have this film on DVD I would probably plump for the Special Edition. Hopefully this new edition will get released in Region 4 in the not-too-distant future. |
