Kino Lorber have dated and detailed their upcoming 4K Blu-ray release of Howard Hawks' El Dorado (1966), starring John Wayne, Robert Mitchum, James Caan, Charlene Holt, and Paul Fix. The release is scheduled to arrive on the market on January 26.

Description: Heartless tycoon Bart Jason (Edward Asner) hires a group of thugs to force the MacDonald family out of El Dorado so he can claim their land. J.P. Harrah, the town's sheriff, is too deep in the throes of alcoholism to help the family. When Harrah's friend, noble elder gunfighter Cole Thorton (John Wayne), learns of the predicament, he travels to El Dorado with his upstart friend, Mississippi (James Caan), to help Harrah clean up in time for a shootout against Jason's men.
