dir. Spike Lee
S-Tier Imprint 4K. Spike Lee's Malcolm X, and the 4K has one of the largest file sizes for any movie on disc. Three different 4K releases exist from Criterion, Icon, and Imprint, with Imprint having the best A/V quality overall including the original stereo mix. Criterion has better extras and shelf presence. Angela Bassett weeping over Denzel at the end still destroys people.
Imprint · 4K + Blu-ray
dir. Jonathan Demme

Vinegar Syndrome · 4K + Blu-ray
dir. Robert Zemeckis
Kino Lorber picking up the Zemeckis/Washington Oscar film for 4K. No release date yet and no tier rating, but Kino has been putting out solid transfers lately. The plane crash sequence should look incredible with HDR.
