Is it going to be censored like the D.V.D. was, though?

I want to hear Sarah Miles moaning in ecstasy as she strokes her nipple and makes love to herself, not some git playing the piano!

Follow your spirit; and upon this charge
Cry, God for Harry, England, and St. George!

Don't know whether it's the cut version but early word is that the video quality is abysmal. At hometheaterforum.com, Robert Harris, responsible for the restorations of (and basically saving) My Fair Lady, Vertigo, Spartacus and Lawrence of Arabia among others, was appalled, saying it was the worst looking Blu-ray he'd ever seen. On a scale 1 - 5, he rated the visual quality as -2.

Another poster added that it was not Shout's fault, that they were forced to accept the aweful remastering given to them by the rights holder from whom they had licensed the film, and so had no control over the image quality.
