Lol! If they still operate after corona!

Shops that deal in second hand goods might not fare so well.

Not a Particularly great film, but the extras with the retrospective on British Cinematographer Christopher Challis and the Ron Goodwin talking track are worth the purchase. I do respect what Powerhouse/Indicator have achieved since 2016. Every film is given a fair "crack at the whip" in terms of extra's and great Blu-Ray restoration. Always worth the purchase.

Love Force Ten.
I prefer it to the original actually!
I remember the first time I saw it on Telly .....there was a dam built in the garden with the Action Man toys the next day! :lol:

I'm sure (for a while at least), with donations they'll do the same as HMV will be doing with undamaged items returned to them, quarantining them for 72 hours.

I think it's way better than The Guns of Navarone too. Force Ten i consider to be a classic.

I saw Sweet Charity for the first time last year.

This is bloody genius!

Indicator don't have a license to distribute MGM titles. Lenny is a UA release thru MGM Entertainment. Universal, Film 4, Sony and a few others are the companies Indicator deal with. I wish Indicator could get a license from Warner Bros. but Warner's are so fussy about handing over films to other labels. I recently got my hands on Klute via the Criterion label. Great film.

I would like to see Indicator deliver some more Paramount titles. Two I'm after. Looking For Mr. Goodbar and I'm Dancing as Fast as I can. I still have the VHS UK rental copies released by CIC video.

Paramount would be great, especially Goodbar. I'd also like to see Let's Scare Jessica to Death. The Tenant, Targets and Blood & Roses to name a few.

Eureka have a deal with Paramount, and have released some interesting titles from the vaults of the studio. Seconds was a nice surprise (even though the film was released by Criterion sometime ago), plus A New Leaf, Nashville etc.... Even that deal with Warner Archives through Paramount didn't last long. Just a few titles got released on MOD, including Let's Scare Jessica to Death. Parallax View deseves an Indicator release, but very much doubt the film will ever get released on Blu-Ray now. Two of the most fustrating studios to deal with, Paramount and Warner Bros.
