Warner Home Video has announced Clint Eastwood’s Unforgiven is returning to Blu-ray on February 21 in celebration of the film’s 20th anniversary. The timing also coincides with the Academy Awards, of which Unforgiven won four, and what should be the Blu-ray debut for Eastwood’s latest, J. Edgar.
Unforgiven: 20th Anniversary on Blu-ray (SRP $34.99) will be packaged in a Blu-ray book case that includes 54 pages of rare Eastwood observations, filmmaking insight, trivia and more. Bonus features on the disc include the following:
- Commentary by Eastwood biographer Richard Schickel
- All on Accounta Pullin – a Trigger, featuring interviews with Morgan Freeman and others
- Eastwood A Star
- Eastwood & Co.: Making Unforgiven
- Eastwood on Eastwood: A career retrospective from Time critic/biographer Richard Schickel
- Maverick TV series episode ‘Duel at Sundown’ (1959), in which Eastwood plays a virtual younger incarnation of his Unforgiven role
- Theatrical trailer
In addition to Unforgiven, Warner is also releasing John Ford’s Fort Apache starring John Wayne on Blu-ray the same day (SRP $19.98). That release will include a commentary by F.X. Feeney, and the vintage featurette ‘Monument Valley: John Ford Country.’
