Paramount Pictures vil give dig et tilbud, du ikke kan afslå. The Godfather-trilogien udgives i marts på UHD Blu-ray og digitalt (online) i 4K Dolby Vision.
Godfathers 50 års jubilæum
For at fejre 50-året for Francis Ford Coppolas The Godfather, har Paramount Pictures restaureret trilogien i en remasteret-udgave med Dolby Vision under ledelse af Coppola. Det har taget tre år.
- “I am very proud of The Godfather, which certainly defined the first third of my creative life," sagde Francis Ford Coppola. "With this 50th anniversary tribute, I’m especially proud Mario Puzo’s The Godfather, Coda: The Death of Michael Corleone is included, as it captures Mario and my original vision in definitively concluding our epic trilogy. It’s also gratifying to celebrate this milestone with Paramount alongside the wonderful fans who’ve loved it for decades, younger generations who still find it relevant today, and those who will discover it for the first time."
- "Every effort was made to create the finest possible presentation for today’s audiences who can watch the films using technology that has advanced dramatically since 2007 when the last restoration was completed by eminent film historian and preservationist Robert Harris. Using that work as a blueprint, the team spent thousands of hours to ensure that every frame was evaluated to create the most pristine presentation while remaining true to the original look and feel of the films," sagde Paramount Pictures.
Den nye udgave af første film udgives i Dolby Cinema-biografer i USA og internationalt. Disse biografer findes ikke i Danmark. Trilogien lander på UHD Blu-ray den 22. marts i USA. Den europæiske dato blev ikke bekræftet. Trilogien udgives også online i 4K HDR10 og Dolby Vision på samme tid.
The Godfather-trilogien på UHD Blu-ray, Collector's Edition
Boksen med UHD Blu-ray-skiver byder på biografudgaverne af de to første film og Coppolas klippede udgave fra 1991, Mario Puzo’s The Godfather, Coda: The Death of Michael Corleone, af the tredje film. De præsenteres alle i HDR10 og Dolby Vision samt 5.1-lyd og de originale mono lydspor.
