THE BOYS IN THE BAND: 2-disc Special Edition DVD coming 2008!

Per a CBS Home Video rep, they are planning to release the 1970 film-version of THE BOYS IN THE BAND next year as a 2-disc Special Edition DVD for the play's 40th Anniversary, featuring interviews with playwright/screenwriter Mart Crowley, Dominick Dunne, the film's director William Friedkin, etc. Yes, the film will be presented in anamorphic widescreen.

THE BOYS IN THE BAND will also be shown at the Tribeca Film Festival next year for the 40th Anniversary.

WOW! this is one of those releases that will sell like crazy for about a week till all the obsessed fans get it-- then will go out of print and never be seen again. It's worth seeing, certainly, if only to see how far we've come.

Is this a REAL DVD release, BrodyFosse123, or are you jerking us around the way you did with the three disk DVD of "Little Night Music"?

I can't WAIT -- I did this show in 2000, I played Emory -- although dated, it's a VERY important play/movie for the gay community. It will be great to have a deluxe DVD release.
