The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (Criterion Collection) [New 4K UHD Blu-ray]

Description: Product DescriptionThe boundless imagination of Terry Gilliam yields a dazzling fantasy of epic proportions. Inspired by the extravagant exploits of the fabled Baron Munchausen, this spectacle—born of a famously turbulent production—follows the whimsical eighteenth-century nobleman (John Neville) as he embarks on an outlandish quest that takes him from faraway lands to the moon to the belly of a sea monster and beyond, meanwhile waging battle against a vengeful sultan and the tyranny of logic. Packed frame to frame with special effects, mischievous wit, and colorful performances—including a young Sarah Polley as the Baron’s no-nonsense sidekick—the Oscar-nominated The Adventures of Baron Munchausen is a lavish celebration of the triumph of make-believe over reality.DIRECTOR-APPROVED 4K UHD + BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURESNew 4K digital restoration, approved by writer-director Terry Gilliam, with 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrackOne 4K UHD disc of the film presented in Dolby Vision HDR and two Blu-rays with the film and special featuresAudio commentary featuring Gilliam and his coscreenwriter, Charles McKeownDocumentary on the making of the filmNew video essay by critic and filmmaker David Cairns about the history of the Baron Munchausen characterBehind-the-scenes footage of the film’s special effects, narrated by GilliamDeleted scenes with commentary by GilliamStoryboards for unfilmed scenes, narrated by Gilliam and McKeownOriginal marketing materials including a trailer and electronic-press-kit featurettes, as well as preview cards and advertising proposals read by GilliamMiracle of Flight (1974), an animated short film by GilliamEpisode of The South Bank Show from 1991 on GilliamEnglish subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearingPLUS: An essay by critic and author Michael KoreskyProduct detailsAspect Ratio ‏ : ‎ UnknownMPAA rating ‏ : ‎ PG (Parental Guidance Suggested)Package Dimensions ‏ : ‎ 6.77 x 5.31 x 0.67 inches; 0.02 ouncesDirector ‏ : ‎ Terry GilliamMedia Format ‏ : ‎ 4K, SubtitledRun time ‏ : ‎ 323 minutesRelease date ‏ : ‎ January 3, 2023Actors ‏ : ‎ John Neville, Eric Idle, Sarah Polley, Oliver Reed, Charles McKeownSubtitles: ‏ : ‎ EnglishStudio ‏ : ‎ The Criterion CollectionASIN ‏ : ‎ B0BJJ5P1YJCountry of Origin ‏ : ‎ USANumber of discs ‏ : ‎ 3
