Kino: New 2K Restoration of Man on the Moon Detailed for Blu-ray

Kino Lorber have detailed their upcoming Blu-ray release of Milos Forman's Man on the Moon (1999), starring Jim Carrey, Danny DeVito, Courtney Love, Paul Giamatti, and David Koechner. The release will be available for purchase on February 22.

Synopsis: Jim Carrey stars as the late Andy Kaufman, who was considered one of the most innovative, eccentric and enigmatic performers of his time. A master at manipulating audiences, Kaufman could generate belly laughs, stony silence, tears or brawls. Whether inviting the audience out for milk and cookies or challenging women to inter-gender wrestling matches, he specialized in creating performances so real that even his close friends were never sure where the truth lay.
