First Look at Brand New Restoration of Benji

Posted February 7, 2018 07:00 PM by Webmaster

U.S. label Mill Creek Entertainment has provided us with a promotion video for the recent restoration of Joe Camp's beloved classic Benji (1974), starring Peter Breck, Deborah Walley, Patsy Garrett, Edgar Buchanan, and Cynthia Smith. A Blu-ray release of Benji will be available for purchase on February 13.

Synopsis: Benji is the gripping story of a vagabond dog struggling to communicate something he's seen to humans. Humans who need to know but cannot grasp the concept that a dog could possibly help. A story of frustration and persistence, of love and suspense. And the first time ever that a dog has actually acted on the screen. Expressed emotion. And done it so very well that we, the audience, completely understand everything Benji is thinking and doing, every turn and twist, without a word of dialog being spoken.

Special Features and Technical Specs:
  • BRAND NEW 35mm Film Restoration and Transfer
  • First widescreen presentation of the film in high-definition
  • Specially produced bonus features will include new audio commentary by creator Joe Camp and son Brandon Camp
