Christian,

My wife was just looking for that for me...... up to now, just NTSC VHS.

Have you got the book: "A French Kiss With Death"? It's a fabulous insight into the making of the movie, as well as a good biography of the man himself.

cheers

Christian,

I just looked on amazon.com and .co.uk and couldn't see a release date. On .com I was able to log my email address to get notification but the message seemed to indicate no commitment yet from the studio. I guess I'm looking in the wrong place?

cheers

Derek,

You're right - not found! Here's the link from the email I got <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00008DDRX/ref=t_th_em_po" target="_blank">here</a>. Unfortunately there aren't any details on what the DVD might contain in terms of extras. The Paramount page only shows releases thru mid-March, so guess we'll have to wait a little longer on details.

Bill, Derek,

The link Bill has included takes me to an Amazon.com page listing it as selling at $14.99 and being released on 29th April. If the link doesn't show this, try going to the DVD section and doing a search for Le Mans or Steve McQueen. I too found out via email notification. Being in the UK (Region 2) this will probably spur me on to buying a multi region player....

Derek - yes I do have "A French Kiss with Death" - fascinating and slightly disturbing, a great read.
