Featuring: Gene Hackman, Jennifer Warren, Susan Clark, Melanie Griffith, Edward Binns, Harris Yulin, Janet Ward, James Woods, John Crawford
Arthur Penn’s haunting neonoir reimagines the hard-boiled detective film for the disillusioned, paranoid 1970s. In one of his greatest performances, Gene Hackman oozes world-weary cynicism as a private investigator whose search for an actress’s missing daughter (Melanie Griffith) leads him from the Hollywood Hills to the Florida Keys, where he is pulled into a sordid family drama and a sinister conspiracy he can hardly grasp. Bolstered by Alan Sharp’s genre-scrambling script and Dede Allen’s elliptical editing, the daringly labyrinthine Night Moves is a defining work of post-Watergate cinema—a silent scream of existential dread and moral decay whose legend has only grown with time.

Release Notes on Restoration
Night Moves is presented in the aspect ratio of 1.85:1. This new 4K restoration was created from the 35 mm original camera negative. A vintage 35 mm Technicolor dye-transfer print was used as a color reference. The original monaural soundtrack was remastered from the 35 mm DME magnetic track. The feature is presented in Dolby Vision HDR (high dynamic range) on the 4K Ultra HD disc and high-definition SDR (standard dynamic range) on the Blu-ray.
