Hello, I was wondering if anyone knew when/if the Italian Job was going to be released on DVD? I saw on www.play247.com a while ago that it was going to be released but it was then deleted by the studio.

I love this film to bits, and rate it as my best of all time. Any help would be gratefully received.

Alex.

PS. Any info on ZULU would be eagerly received also.

The remake - with Mark Wahlberg in the Charlie Croker role and the whole thing moved to LA - is currently under development. For more info, try Mark Wahlberg's official site at: http://www.markwahlberg.com/.

I founded the info about UK release DVD "The Italian Job" in Hi-Fi UK magazine. They used the DVD among a few more to check a quality a View/sound different DVD-players, TV plasma, etc. I cannot hardly wait for US (DVD zone 1) release that movie.
