With this title out in the UK on Blu-ray, I wonder if we will see a Criterion Blu-ray edition soon?

The original Italian with a 185 minute running time is (I believe) the better version. Enjoy, it is a work of beauty.

Mr. Minnock is correct. It’s Visconti’s masterpiece, and Lancaster (though dubbed) is truly great in it.

That blu-ray is a must-have. Just spot-checked the quality and it is most impressive.

Looks like this will be released by Criterion on BD. At least that’s what I get from the drawing.
