Kino Lorber have detailed their upcoming 4K Blu-ray release of Michael Cimino's
Thunderbolt and Lightfoot (1974), starring Clint Eastwood, Jeff Bridges, George Kennedy, Geoffrey Lewis, and Catherine Bach. The release is scheduled to arrive on the market on September 26.
Synopsis: While stealing a car, free-spirited drifter Lightfoot (Jeff Bridges) crosses paths with legendary thief Thunderbolt (Clint Eastwood) in the midst of his own escape. Thunderbolt's old partners in crime, Red (George Kennedy) and Eddie (Geoffrey Lewis), believe he double-crossed them after they robbed a Montana bank vault several years ago. After Thunderbolt successfully pleads his innocence and is let off the hook, Lightfoot rallies them together as a group to rob the very same bank again.
