Ran looks impressive on Blu-ray and pretty good in Digital HD, but an Ultra HD edition with HDR would surely be a treat for the eyes. Inspired by Shakespeare’s “King Lear,” Ran won an Academy Award for Best Costume Design and was nominated for 3 more Oscars including Best Director, Best Cinematography, and Best Art Direction-Set Decoration. Īkira Kurosawa’s Ran (1985) is a visually striking epic masterpiece that takes you to 16th century Japan where Lord Hidetora (Tatsuya Nakadai) divides his kingdom among his three sons, causing a family feud that leads to wars over territory and status.

The movie stars Robert De Niro, Jodie Foster, and Cybill Shepherd. Taxi Driver was nominated for a total of 4 Oscars including Best Picture, with some of the most memorable scenes in film history. There have been quite a few Blu-ray editions of Taxi Driver (even a “Mastered in 4k” edition from Sony), but so far the best presentation of the film in home media formats has been 1080p with the soundtrack in 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio. “Taxi Driver” (1976) starring Robert De Niro Columbia TriStar Taxi Driver (1976)Īlthough already available in 4k on iTunes, Martin Scorsese’s Taxi Driver would be a must-own on 4k Ultra HD Blu-ray with High Dynamic Range and a remastered soundtrack. All you need is the popcorn! Here are 10 more titles that will hopefully be released someday to 4k Blu-ray and/or Digital 4k UHD with High Dynamic Range. With the right video calibration and audio setup, home theater systems can get remarkably close to theatrical presentations. Both object-based audio formats add a new dimension to multi-channel surround sound, with effects that can be directed overhead. As well as video, an upgraded soundtrack would also be the icing on the cake in either Dolby Atmos or DTS:X.
Last time, I brought up 10 classic movies that I’d love to see restored for Ultra HD Blu-ray with hopefully HDR in either Dolby Vision or HDR10.
