About this deal

About the cheapest I've seen this with no UK release.

Germany in 1944: The Stalag Luft III prisoner of war camp is considered absolutely escape-proof. But Major Bartlett (Richard Attenborough) and his fellow prisoners Hilts (Steve McQueen) and Hendley (James Garner) - all flying officers who have previously escaped from other camps - are not deterred by the strict security measures.

The majority of 4k bluray, especially classics, don't get a UK release. There's so many great 4k out elsewhere.

Is this the same 4K transfer as the US release

No, that's by Kino Lorber. This one is by Capelight and also has HDR and DV which the former doesn't (I heard the HDR on this is fake though on the blu ray forums). (edited)

Arrived today. Just tested to see how it looks and it looks pretty good. I've got the criterion bluray (USA import) and the 4k looks appreciabley better. The hdr looks decent. Highly recommended and thanks again for the heads up.
You dig! (edited)
