UPDATE, 2 APRIL 2020

First and foremost, we’d like to take this opportunity to say that we hope that you, your families, friends, colleagues and loved ones are all safe, healthy and well. We'd also like to take the opportunity to say to those of you who are key workers and volunteers just how much we appreciate what you are doing to care and provide for others during this challenging time.

Secondly, some updates. We are delighted to report that Lime Wood Media is still up and running, to fulfil your website orders, but with a significantly reduced staff, none of whom needs to either travel on public transport or risk coming into contact with others in order to get to or operate within the warehouse. At the time of writing, Lime Wood Media anticipate being able to ship out orders on a twice-weekly basis, and we will update if the situation changes.

As for our May releases – Spring Night Summer Night, Watermelon Man, Cisco Pike, and Moscow on the Hudson – we are still hoping to be able to bring them to you as originally planned, on their intended release date. If that changes, we’ll provide regular updates via social media.

Beyond May, it’s currently not possible for us to make promises with regards to future release dates, and there are no guarantees that all parts of the supply chains upon which we depend will continue to function. With that in mind, we will be running a different discount offer during April, affording a 10% saving on all currently released titles (i.e., excluding the May titles mentioned above) when you purchase two or more items. Simply enter APRIL at the checkout stage on the website.

Finally, our thoughts and best wishes are with you all, as well as with our many friends and colleagues in the industry, both here and around the world – look after yourselves and each other. And let's all find a way to celebrate once this thing's behind us!

Take care,

Everyone at Powerhouse Films and Lime Wood Media

PS. As we are unable to provide new announcements and pre-orders this month, we thought we would share some of the range of titles we are currently working on, and sincerely hope to bring to you before too long…

Je suis content pour le Scott... ça me permettra de le réévaluer dans de meilleures conditions que mon vieux Laserdisc

[Flol]

Très tenté par Diary of a Mad Housewife.
Et je serais presque tenté par Ishtar, juste histoire de constater l'étendue du supposé désastre.

[Torrente]

Je l'ai découvert via le Blu-ray Severin US. Je ne sais pas lequel des 2 est le plus désastreux... le film ou le Blu-ray
Au moins, Powerhouse fera du meilleur boulot techniquement...

Un Losey que j'aime beaucoup, et cette fois master 4K

[phibes]

Toujours pas d'info pour un coffret Hammer volume 6 ..?

[Mosin-Nagant]

Toujours pour le 24 août :

[tenia]

A noter aussi que les 5 Boetticher sortiront à l'unité le 27 juillet.

Sinon Sweet Charity partira aussi d'une resto 4K (2 montages : Roadshow et "normal") et I, Monster partira d'une nouvelle resto 2K effectuée par Powerhouse et avec 2 montages là aussi.

Je ne comprends pas trop... au sujet de The beast must die, je viens de lire une newsletter de Severin qui annonce une ressortie durant leurs soldes de la fin de semaine prochaine :

A superior 35mm pre-print element of The Beast Must Die was recently unearthed in France and made available to us. On the previous Amicus box exclusive only an old HD telecine was available of the censored TV version and the censored scenes were scanned from a 16mm print and inserted. The newly available superior element was given a brand new scan and fully restored by Studio Canal in France.

2 questions me viennent alors.
- Quid du Powerhouse annoncé en grande pompe il y a 1 mois ?? Partent ils des mêmes éléments ou pas ? Des captures sont elles déjà dispo' quelque part ? (j'ai lu un test mais sans captures)
- Et est ce à dire que Studio Canal prévoit de sortir ce nouveau master en Allemagne/UK et/ou France ?

Si quelqu'un a des infos concrètes, je suis preneur !!

[tenia]

Le Powerhouse utilise un nouveau master, qui est en fait le nouveau master Studio Canal. Leur page produit a d'ailleurs été mise à jour il y a quelques jours pour indiquer "4k restoration". Je posterai des captures demain. Ça enterre visiblement l'ancien disque Severin, mais par contre, ça m'a paru super sombre et très bouché.

Aucune idée si Canal sortira le film en France, par contre.
