THREE & FOUR MUSKETEERS 4K UHD - Studio Canal Europe

[AndyDursin]

No idea if this will hit the USA or not, as Criterion was allegedly going to bring them out (though in 4K? Probably not)

These transfers are spectacular. Amazing how "aged" this movie always appeared in its terrible previous home video releases -- not being controlled by a major studio, it's always looked problematic and suffered from being on the likes of "Fox Lorber Home Video" (with those French credits -- viva "Alexandre Salkind" lol) and USA Home Video back in the VHS era (in those huge oversized boxes!) before it.

Safe to say we've never seen them look like this -- ever. It's as if a veil has been removed from the image.

Great. I can now retire my UK blu-rays.

I'm looking forward to the new French versions, The Three Musketeers: D'Artagnan and The Three Musketeers: Milady, although, I'm not sure how much of a release these will get in the US.

Guess I didn't check the music closely enough -- the pitch is a higher octave than it ought to be on the UK/French tracks.
