I wonder if frantic will be widescreen finally.
And it figures I bought Grumpy Old men already.

Frantic will HAVE TO BE widescreen. It's HD and that's how the movie was originally filmed. It's been available in widescreen in other parts of the world for well over a decade and has been broadcast in HD on HBO for a while now.

This will also be the first time that PI has been released ANYWHERE in anamorphic widescreen.

It has the picture of the front and back of the packaging.
I am pretty excited to see Frantic in Widescreen for the first time.

I hope they put all the "Frantic"-lost scenes on the blue ray. I can't wait...

Oh, that's sad.

Due to studio pressure, 15 minutes were trimmed from the original running time and a new ending was shot.

Really? I never knew that. I wonder what happened in the original ending. Polanski has been a little busy lately. Well actually, no he has not.

I skimmed through Frantic. Bluray quality was not bluray quality but it is the best I have seen it look. I thought Presumed Innocent looked rather good and much better than dvd.
I sure wish they would have at least included the trailers.
