Excellent news! Hopefully the standard edition will have a slipcover. Shame the original audio being lossy instead of lossless.

This is looking like a great holiday time for catalog titles. I'm shocked studios haven't attempted to cash grab her sequel yet.

One of my all-time favorite movies, based on one of my all-time favorite novels. The performances are perfection, including Kim Stanley's wonderful narration as the adult Scout; and Elmer Bernstein's magnificent original score never fails to bring tears to my eyes. Of course Gregory Peck was born to play the role of Atticus Finch, and it's easy to see why he won the Best Actor Oscar. I am thrilled that it's making its 4K debut. It's a must-own.

'To Kill a Mockingbird' gave me no useful advice on killing mockingbirds. It did teach me not to judge a man based on the color of his skin, but what good does that do me? (Homer Simpson)

Surprised Universal didn't try to do DTS:X like they usually do. No Dolby Vision is puzzling on a prestige title like this.

The cover art is a drag.

I don�t mind that it�s not the original poster art. But the character of Scout really should be featured prominently. And it should show Brock Peters�s face, not the back of his head.

@kaden1108: I have to think here is no way that �Go Set a Watchman� will ever be adapted. Or at least I hope not. (By the way it�s now understood to be an early draft of �Mockingbird,� not the sequel it was marketed as.) The circumstances of its publication are very fishy indeed:

The Blu-ray was abominable and everything Universal used to be in terms of bad transfers. Here�s hoping this finally fixes that wrong and has a decent mono presentation.

From 1962, one of the greatest films ever made. This film, in almost any other year would have been a sure bet to win the Best Picture Oscar. It just had the unfortunate timing to have come out in the same year as Lawrence of Arabia.

One of the greatest movies ever made! We�ll definitely be upgrading my current Blu.

Side note: I�m a little surprised that Universal isn�t upgrading the DTS-HD MA 5.1 to DTS:X, given their history with past catalogue titles.

One of the greatest films ever made in Robert Mulligan�s masterpiece �To Kill a Mockingbird� is finally receiving a 4K UHD edition. The cover art is blah & could be far better as they should have used the Blu-Ray Digibook artwork instead. This should look stunning in 4K though. To think, Kino had the chance to do this film�s release in 4K but turned it down lol. But just glad it�s finally getting it�s 4K release on UHD.

@markthedoctor: Personally, I agree. I also rate it higher than Lawrence of Arabia on my personal best films list but at that time, the Academy, more often than not, seemed to favor those massive productions over smaller ones.

I'll wait for the reviews as I'm not sure the source is of sufficient quality to justify the 4K treatment.
