PRODUCT INFORMATION
THE WORLDWIDE BLU-RAY PREMIERE
With his feature film directorial debut, Hungarian émigré Peter Medak (THE RULING CLASS, ROMEO IS BLEEDING) created a provocative UK classic and launched one of the most unique careers in cinema history: When a young couple – Peter McEnery of ENTERTAINING MR. SLOANE and 2x Academy Award® winner Glenda Jackson in her film debut – grows bored with their kinky roleplay games, they invite an uninhibited photographer (Academy Award® nominee Diane Cilento of TOM JONES and THE WICKER MAN) to come between them. Maurice Denham (SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY) co-stars in the groundbreaking 1968 drama that “leaves nothing to the imagination” (NY Daily News), now scanned in 4K from the original camera negative by The British Film Institute. Also included is a Bonus Disc of the “magnificent” (NY Post) 1963 comedy SPARROWS CAN’T SING starring James Booth (ZULU) and Barbara Windsor (the CARRY ON series) – directed by Joan Littlewood (OH! WHAT A LOVELY WAR) and assistant directed by Medak – scanned in 4K from the original camera negative by StudioCanal.

Shipping
No, we only ship inside the US
Most orders for in-stock items take less than 24 hours to ship (may take longer if you place an order over the weekend). Pre-orders are shipped as soon as the product arrives. International pre-orders may not come in before the street date. This is especially true with Australian pre-orders.
We only use USPS for all shipments. If there is an issue after your order ships you will need to contact your local post office.
Product
All items that come with a slipcover will say so in the product page.
Pre-orders will not say WITH SLIPCOVER until the product comes in.
Slipcovers are not guaranteed to be in mint condition.
If you can order it, it's either in stock or a pre-order. If an item is out of stock you will not be able to add it to your cart. It's rare but our inventory may not be correct. So in some cases an item may have to be shipped separately.
Other
We do not sell bootlegs. All product arrives from the distributor or is directly from the filmmakers. All items are new and sealed. Some indie titles or signed editions may not have shrinkwrap.
