God's Own Country IS getting an American Blu-ray after all.

Amazon has it for $25.

To anyone who might be reading this, please consider buying it in some form to show your support for everyone involved in this production. You won't regret it as it's a gorgeous, sweet little movie.

It was released today on Amazon, but I didn't see any Blu-ray option. Some other sites have indicated that a .Blu-ray will be available in February in America, but I'm not absolutely sure about that.

I decided to skip the Blu-ray and purchase the High Def streaming version (as a "lifetime" purchase and not a rental). It looks really great in HD, even though I assume the Blu-ray version would have even higher resolution. It's a good compromise since I was able to see the movie right away instead of waiting a month or so.

I am buying the HD streaming version on Amazon as well r2. Wanted to show my support.

It is such a good movie.

I pre-ordered the UK Blu-ray since I have a region-free player and it was only available on DVD here in the States. Seems like a lot of smaller films are doing that —only releasing the DVD and HD format on iTunes here in the US instead of Blu-ray. Glad to hear it’s now available. Fantastic film.

by Anonymousreply 5January 30, 2018 9:33 PM

It still has a listing even though the Amazon order disappeared.

I know. The Amazon.com listing had it, too, and I even pre-ordered it. Now it's gone.

Get it while you can! Invest in a region free Blu-ray player! Much easier to acquire good films.

If it's coming out in the US after all, it's unnecessary for this film.

I bought the US DVD, which did not have the translator, so I gave it to a friend who doesn't care about such fripperies as being able to understand Yorkshire dialect. I then bought the Amazon Video HD version, which I shall watch via Roku. So complicated these days.

It used to be VHS, Beta or Laserdisc.

Once you watch it a couple of times, the accents become a lot clearer when you know the context

I'd buy it if there were an hour's worth of O'Connor-Secareanu outtakes of their nude wrestling in the "Special Features."

Gheorghe is Romanian, not Romani/Gypsy. Romanians are white Eastern European while Romani/Gypsy people originate from Northern India and Pakistan - they're completely different ethnic groups

by Anonymousreply 29February 6, 2018 4:32 PM

Turns out Romania was occupied by Nazis during the war. This article also says there were Romani in Romania because they were sent to the camps along with the Jews.

The difference is Italy allied with Hitler voluntarily.

It's an awful movie, almost impossible to understand the thick accents. Gloomy and dreary, and the two straight actors aren't very convincing as gay.

Horseface and Ratboy aren't gay in real life.

The film's director, Francis Lee, is gay. How do we even know gay actors who were right for these parts even auditioned?

Sometimes it is not enough to say why a movie is great. Sometimes you actively have to fight to get greatness the recognition it deserves.

But they did pretend real good. Not just the sex scenes, but the scene at the end of the movie on the bus, or Gheorghe staring at Johnny as they both look out on God's own country.

In other words, they acted.

The CMBYN queens are the ones who never fucking shut up about that shitty movie, projecting its flaws onto this and other superior movies. And you don't even wait until the threads about Horseface and Ratboy are full before starting new ones.

That movie is vile and deserves none of its hype or awards.

Apple TV hardware is what....$40?

by Anonymousreply 65February 9, 2018 10:05 PM

The cost isn't the issue, really, R65. It's more a case of another device? Another remote?

by Anonymousreply 66February 9, 2018 10:07 PM

R66 it’s a little box and little silver remote that takes some effort to master. The remote is intuitive, like all Apple products, but I spent a night learning how to handle if. My ex ALWAYS loses the remote somewhere....so make sure that you know where your place it.
