We just got the Hitchcock 4K collection

Remember that "Vertigo" was filmed in Vista Vision. It looks fabulous. It also has a DTS:X soundtrack.

"Rear Window" has never looked better either.

We will be watching "The Birds" and "Psycho" over the holiday weekend.

The package design sucks. There is no way to get a disk out without getting finger prints on the disk.

by Harris and Katz. The colors are great but they rerecorded a lot of the sound effects and music. You can really tell the difference - some good and some bad. I saw a special about it. The plot is a little far-fetched but this is still my favorite movie.

I agree the package design sucks...but the movies are so awesome on my 4K TV and Denon surround sound system. I've seen details that I never noticed before. You will really enjoy them!
