Der Untergang/Downfall?
Does anyone know when a region 1 version of this film is comming out? I saw it in the theatre and it was amazing. I know that the German version has already been released, but I don't have a code-free player. If anyone has any information it would be greatly appreciated.

I'm interested in this as well. Downfall and A Very Long Engagement are my most anticipated foreign releases. I doubt it'll be soon though; the official "Limited Release" date was Feb 18, 2005.

Not any time soon...at the earliest I would assume late, very late November/December. In addition to the already out German and Dutch versions the UK version has been set for a September release.

I haven't seen the movie, but went ahead and ordered a R2 copy anyway. I rented DVD of the interview with his secretary about his final days a while back and thought it was interesting. Considering Der Untergang is based on her story, it should be good.

Thedigitalbits.com is reporting that Downfall is going to be released on 8/2/05. No specs announced though. I'm anxiously awaiting this release since the movie wasn't shown in theaters in Puerto Rico.

This movie was fantastic. After catching it at the theater here, I immediately went online and ordered the R2. Well worth a blind buy for those who are even remotely interested.

According to DVDEmpire...

R1 Downfall will have a directors commentary, Making of, and Cast and Crew Interviews.
I have seen this stated at other websites too. I don't know if it is correct because I have seen conflicting information. I also heard that the interviews could last around 100 mins which would be worthwhile. I hope it is good because I am looking foward to getting this DVD!
