Paramount Pictures UK has provided final details for its upcoming 4K Blu-ray release of Sergio Leone's classic western Once Upon a Time in the West (1968), starring Charles Bronson, Claudia Cardinale, Henry Fonda, Jason Robards, and Gabriele Ferzetti. The release will be available for purchase on May 13.
Description: One of the most iconic and influential movies ever made, ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST has been restored from the original 35mm Techniscope camera negative by Paramount's archive team, L'Immagine Ritrovata and The Film Foundation. This restoration honours the 2007 Film Foundation photochemical restoration overseen by legendary director Martin Scorsese by matching its build and colour palette. The result is the definitive home release of the film, which features the 165-minute extended cut restored to its glory.
A must-own for every cinephile's collection, ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST will be presented in a Limited-Edition 4K Blu-ray and Blu-ray set that includes both new and legacy bonus content. The Collector's Edition is housed in a rigid slipcase and includes a theatrical poster, six art cards, a collectable MORTON train display sign, and a vintage fold out photographic print.
Widely considered to be one of the greatest Westerns—and one of the greatest films—ever made, ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST was selected for preservation by the Library of Congress in the U.S. National Film Registry in 2009.
