Concernant The Outsiders, Pathé n'a pas encore fait d'annonce. Le planning de sortie est disponible pour les pays suivants :
NORTH AMERICA (Warner Bros.) – Theatrical September 26, Home Entertainment November 9, HBO Max November 16, TCM Fall 2021
UK HOME (STUDIOCANAL) – Theatrical TBC, Home Entertainment November 8
AUSTRALIA & NEW ZEALAND (STUDIOCANAL) – Home Entertainment November 10
GERMANY (STUDIOCANAL) – Home Entertainment November 11
StudioCanal ne proposera très certainement pas de STFR sur ses éditions, mais le Warner peut-être. Ce qui en ferait dès lors l'édition à privilégier pour ceux qui veulent une édition francophile.
Par ailleurs, le communiqué insiste sur un aspect important :
"For 'The Outsiders The Complete Novel' as well as the original theatrical version, we wanted to create and maintain the highest level of visual quality possible for these restorations," commented James Mockoski, Film Archivist and Restoration Supervisor at American Zoetrope. "We took the unusual path of locating all the various elements that went into creating the film's most elaborate visual effects sequences and re-scanned them. Luckily, Mr. Coppola is an archivist at heart and he kept every piece of film he shot, so we were able to unify scenes from the film using the original camera negative as much as possible. It was important to Mr. Coppola to give this release its best quality presentation, and no one has ever seen this film looking as beautiful and pristine as it does now."
Le film étant bourré d'effets, de transitions et autres fondus, on ne devrait ainsi pas souffrir de déperdition sur ces passages (du moins, c'est ainsi que je comprends la chose).
