Il fait partie de ces films que, pour une raison ou une autre, je n'ai jamais acheté en DVD. Donc c'est achat quasi obligatoire. Même si je suis assez curieux de voir, niveau transfert, comment ils vont traiter la photo très granuleuse (dans mon souvenir) du film.
"In a sense, making movies is itself a quest. A quest for an alternative world, a world that is more satisfactory than the one we live in. That's what first appealed to me about making films. It seemed to me a wonderful idea that you could remake the world, hopefully a bit better, braver, and more beautiful than it was presented to us." John Boorman
Il y a vraiment une attente extraordinaire autour de ce film, on sent de la fébrilité, tout le monde est sur les starting blocks, il devrait être dans le lecteur pour la mi-avril si Amzon.com livre vite (il y a quand même quelques euros de différence avec le tarif prévu sur Amazon.fr), entre Taxi Driver et Mean Streets, le meilleur de Scorcese sera ainsi en haute définition. Entre ça et le Serpico de Lumet + Dog Day afternoon, on a le meilleur des films des années 70 sur New York, il ne manquera plus que Panique à Needle Part de Jerry Schatzberg qui semble le grand sacrifié de l'industrie du BR, et aucune trace d'annonce non plus de L'Epouvantail c'est rageant
Pré-commande effectuée avec le lien Amazon (il est un peu discret), après annulation pré-commande sur Amzon.com (il n'y a plus qu'un euro de différence entre certains envois US et FR (et certains BR ont tendance à arriver cassés d'AmzonUS)
c'est rageant
