DVD from Fox Cinema Archives...but is it widescreen?
No Down Payment is being released on DVD via FCA, the studio's new line of MOD DVD-Rs. Release date varies slightly from site to site, from late November through mid-December 2012. No extras. Retail price is generally listed as $19.95 (sometimes higher), but most vendors carry it for less.
UPDATE 3/3/13: Fox withdrew the film from its release schedule before it was due to come out. No word about why, or when or whether it will be rescheduled. (Or whether it'll be letterboxed.) End update.
The big question is whether it's being released in its full 2.35:1 widescreen aspect ratio. FCA has been a huge disappointment in this regard, as most of its CinemaScope films have been released in lousy pan & scan prints, which is nothing short of a travesty.
Preliminary information indicates that NDP will be one of only a couple of FCA 'Scope films actually released in widescreen. HOWEVER -- it's unclear whether the DVD will be at the correct aspect ratio. One site claims the film will be letterboxed at 1.85:1, which would of course be a severely truncated picture. Since this information has often been contradictory or unclear in previous w/s FCA releases, we may have to wait until someone gets the disc and checks it out to be certain.
If no one else posts the information here, I will once I watch the DVD.
