Terrence Malick‘s The Tree of Life has finally been officially announced for release on Blu-ray. As I reported a few weeks ago, eOne has got the Canadian release while the US version will come from Fox. The Canadian pre-order ship date listed on Amazon.ca has been pushed back a couple of weeks from the previously published September 27th to October 11th, to match the US. The Blu-ray is fairly bare-bones, including only a 30-minute “making of” doc but is reported to utilize “maximum bit rate encoding and 7.1 audio and a 2.0 stereo mix to bring Malick’s visually stunning masterpiece to life providing consumers with a premium cinematic viewing experience for the home.” Sounds good to me! I can’t wait to get my hands on this one.
