Editor's Notes

Note

Warner's standalone 4K release confirmed after the Classics set, which was good news for collectors who already owned most of the 30-disc box. Multiple first-time viewers came away impressed, with Dean Martin's performance getting the most praise. Tarantino name-dropping it as a favorite adds collector cachet.
