With regards to the future of the video distribution of classic films, we at Arrow remain optimistic as there continues to be an active and growing fanbase for our releases. The key, we\u2019ve found, is to focus on quality and making our releases special. This means restoring\/remastering and encoding the films with the utmost care to present the films in the highest quality and most historically accurate way possible. \u00a0It also means creating new and exclusive extra features of real value and producing booklets with new writing sourced from a variety of contributors with fresh insights and extensive knowledge of the films. Finally, it also means creating \u00a0exciting cover artwork and high-quality, collectable packaging.<\/p>\n
To achieve all this, we often choose to release our titles initially in limited editions, a method currently shared by the resurgent collectable record vinyl industry. Not everyone is in favour of the limited edition model, but we\u2019ve found it provides the best way to deliver the kind of premium editions we feel the films deserve, as well as assisting us in funding the significant costs of restoring the films. Simply put, most of the restorations we undertake would not be possible were it not for the successes we\u2019ve enjoyed with our Blu-ray\/DVD releases. Indeed, one could make the argument that Blu-ray\/DVD has been one of the greatest driving forces for film restoration.<\/p>\n
