Mark the date in your diary people, True Grit is released on Blu-ray and DVD in the UK on June 13th. The Blu-ray comes in a “triple play” set containing the DVD and a digital copy version of the movie along with the below special features, apparently all in lovely 1080p;

  • Mattie’s True Grit
  • From Bustles to Buckskin – Dressing for the 1880s
  • Colts, Winchesters & Remingtons: The Guns of a Post-Civil War Western
  • Re-Creating Fort Smith
  • The Cast
  • Charles Portis – The Greatest Writer You’ve Never Heard Of…
  • The Cinematography of True Grit
  • Theatrical Trailer

In addition HMV have an exclusive steelbook version. As far as I can tell, the DVD is devoid of special features!

According to the French branch of 20th Century Fox both Raising Arizona and Miller’s Crossing are coming to Blu-ray in August. Not sure (yet) if this means JUST in France. I will keep an eye on the situation.

It’ll be interesting to see how Raising Arizona cleans up, while Miller’s Crossing should look gorgeous!
