Re: Essentials from Germany
The upcoming 4K UHD release of Christiane F. - Wir Kinder vom Bahnhof Zoo lists English subtitles.
--
Does anyone know if the Blu-Ray releases of Konrad Wolf's Solo Sunny and Wolfgang Staudte's Die Mörder sind unter uns have English subtitles? I can't see any listed, but they are listed on the DVD releases from the same label so it would be odd (though not unheard of) for them to be dropped.

Anolis announces their edition of The Lost Continent (1968, Bestien lauern von Caracas):
https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.ph ... 55&page=27 (scroll down to Ivo Scheloske´s announcement posting)
This version is supposedly 100 mins. at 24 fps, two minutes longer than the previous integral version (=Anchor Bay?). Taken from an old archive German print.

Re: Essentials from Germany
Wow very exciting Stefan! I wonder if Kino might take a look at releasing this one in their war-time German cinema line as it’s a pretty packed release. A couple of websites mention English subtitles but the back of the case and majority of places say it’s German only.

Re: Essentials from Germany
Not recommended at the moment due to audio issues (the surround channels are mixed up) in the 5.1 tracks but Plaion are investigating and maybe perform a replacement program but nothing is explicitly confirmed for now.Stefan Andersson wrote: ↑Mon Jun 03, 2024 5:08 pmHard Target, three versions incl. workprint:

Also important to know, due to the FSK 18 rating, Plaion are not allowed to ship this internationally as they’re required to verify the recipient’s age via an ID upon delivery.
The UK Universal 4K UHD is currently the best version in picture and sound compared to the Kino.
