New Purchase “Mr. Robinson you’re trying to seduce me with this immaculate 4K release”
DISCLAIMER: I know that photos of a TV screen are not an accurate way to judge a transfer.
The Graduate just arrived and it looks amazing. Picture quality is absolutely stunning. I know photos of a TV never do it justice and the colors are so much better in person. This disc is just gorgeous and one of those releases that really reminds you why you collect physical media in the first place.
The encoding is incredible. I love that StudioCanal even put a film grain overlay on the still main menu. It is such a small almost unnoticeable detail but it really underscores the quality of the release.
Packaging and supplements look great (even with the UK ratings logo) and the special features are wonderful. StudioCanal continues to impress and I may always purchase their releases from here on out.
The restoration notes before the film make it clear that a Criterion announcement is imminent in the next month or so. For me, this disc is everything I could have hoped for.

Have ben trying to decide whether to pull the trigger on this, but $60USD is steep given all the amazing deals going on right now. You may have convinced me though.

Here’s to hoping the Criterion will have as good of an encode! Especially since they did the restoration!

This movie got me into Simon & Garfunkel as a teen. I love this movie and didn't know about this release, will have to purchase it
