Arrow Video Legend - Original Artwork Limited Edition

Zavvi - The Home of Pop CultureA World Full of Magic, Wonder and Desire.After changing the face of science fiction cinema forever with Alien and Blade Runner, director Ridley Scott turned his visionary eye to the fantasy genre, teaming with writer William Hjortsberg (Angel Heart) to create a breathtaking cinematic fairytale with one of the screen's most astonishingly rendered depictions of Evil.In an idyllic, sun-dappled forest, the pure-hearted Jack (Tom Cruise) takes his true love Princess Lili (Mia Sara) to see a pair of unicorns frolicking at the forest's edge. Little do they know, however, that the Lord of Darkness (Tim Curry, in a remarkable make-up designed by The Thing's Rob Bottin) has dispatched his minions to capture the unicorns and sever their horns so that he may plunge the world into everlasting night. After Lili and the unicorns are taken prisoner, Jack must team with a group of forest creatures and descend into Darkness' subterranean lair to face off against the devilish creature before it is too late.Despite a troubled production in which the elaborate full-size forest set was accidentally incinerated and a lengthy post-production that resulted in multiple versions of the film (with competing music scores by Jerry Goldsmith and Tangerine Dream), Legend has since been restored to Scott's original cut and embraced by generations of film fans eager to see a master director's unique vision of a world beyond our imagination.Special Features: High Definition (1080p) Blu-ray presentations of the U.S. Theatrical Cut and the Director's Cut of the film DTS-HD MA 5.1 surround and 2.0 stereo audio on both cuts Optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing on both cuts Illustrated perfect-bound book featuring new writing on the film by Nicholas Clement and Kat Ellinger plus archive materials including original production notes and a 2002 interview with Charles de Lauzirika about the restoration of the Director's Cut Large fold-out double-sided poster featuring newly commissioned artwork by Neil Davies and original theatrical artwork by John Alvin Glossy full-colour portraits of the cast photographed by Annie Leibovitz Six double-sided, postcard-sized lobby card reproductions Limited edition packaging with reversible sleeve featuring newly commissioned artwork by Neil Davies and original theatrical artwork by John AlvinDisc One - U.S. Theatrical Cut Brand new 2K restoration of the U.S. Theatrical Cut from original film materials, including a 4K scan of the original camera negative Brand new audio commentary by Paul M.
