Kino Lorber are preparing a Blu-ray release of Joseph Losey's
King and Country (1964), starring Tom Courtenay, Dirk Bogarde, Leo McKern, Barry Foster, and Peter Copley. The release is expected to arrive on the market this summer.
Description: In this World War I drama, English army private Arthur Hamp (Tom Courtenay) is accused of deserting his company while on the battlefield. Defended at his trial by the initially unsympathetic upper-crust lawyer Captain Hargreaves (Dirk Bogarde), Hamp could face a firing squad if found guilty. During the course of the trial, Hargreaves begins to empathize with Hamp, who dealt with horrible conditions in the trenches that are depicted in vivid detail.
4K RESTORATION COMPLETED ON BEHALF OF STUDIOCANAL.
