Warner Archive has confirmed that it will release on Blu-ray director Blake Edwards'
The Great Race (1965), starring Tony Curtis, Natalie Wood, Jack Lemmon, Peter Falk, and Vivian Vance. The release will be available for purchase on September 9th.
Synopsis: Blake Edwards turns a marvelous cast loose on a round-the-world highway booby-trapped by some of the funniest screen gags ever. Jack Lemmon and Peter Falk are nasty Professor Fate and his dim henchman Max. Tony Curtis is their good-guy nemesis, the Great Leslie. And Natalie Wood is cheroot-puffing suffragette reporter Maggie DuBois. Zestily scored by Henry Mancini and ravishing in a new digital transfer with revitalized digital audio from restored elements, The Great Race is great fun!
