North Dallas Forty 4K Blu-ray

Kino Lorber have detailed their upcoming 4K Blu-ray and Blu-ray releases of Ted Kotcheff's North Dallas Forty (1979), starring Nick Nolte, Mac Davis, Charles Durning, Dayle Haddon, and Bo Svenson. The two releases are scheduled to arrive on the market on March 26.

Description: Nick Nolte stars in this honest entertainment about one man's rebellion against the bureaucratic, manipulative world of professional football. Based on the popular novel by former Dallas Cowboy Peter Gent, North Dallas Forty depicts Nolte as an aging ballplayer who, through a woman he meets (Dayle Haddon), is drawn away from the masculine, violent world in which he has lived so long. In doing so, he finds himself at odds with the team's management. The excitement, humor and drama of North Dallas Forty is heightened by its meticulous attention to the details of a football player's private and public life and its authenticity on the playing field.
