We’ve got a couple of good things to share with you today, starting with new discs reviews. Among them are…

My look at John Ford’s legendary Western classic The Searchers (1956) in 4K Ultra HD from the Warner Archive, an absolutely stunning title that I think deserves to be considered the 4K Disc of the Year.

Stephen’s review of Sydney Pollack’s Tootsie (1982) in 4K Ultra HD from Sony via their excellent Columbia Classics: Volume 5 box set, as well as David Chung’s Royal Warriors (1986) on Blu-ray from 88 Films.

And Dennis’ review of Buster Keaton’s Seven Chances (1925) and Sherlock Jr. (1924) on Blu-ray from Kino Classics.

All three are well worth a look, and we’re going to have more new disc reviews here on Wednesday.

Also today, our own Michael Coate has just shared a new History, Legacy & Showmanship column today featuring film historian and author Nat Segaloff as they celebrate the 50th anniversary of John Guillermin’s The Towering Inferno (1974). It’s a short read, but still well worth your time. [Read on here...]

All right, we have just a few final items of business to cover on this short Christmas week...

First, I’ve just posted my in-depth review of Paramount’s stunning new 70th anniversary edition of Michael Curtiz’s White Christmas (1954) in 4K Ultra HD.

The very first VistaVision film ever has been fully restored from the original camera negative and it’s simply gorgeous. It’s a holiday classic that stars Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney, and Vera-Ellen, and it’s well worth a look on 4K disc for cinephiles.

Also, in a bit of release news today, our friends over at Kino Lorber Studio Classics have revealed that Penelope Spheeris’ Black Sheep (1996), starring Chris Farley and David Spade, is set for release on 4K Ultra HD on 3/25. [Read on here...]
