The Chairman & The Quiller Memorandum (R1) in November
Fox Home Entertainment have announced the Region 1 DVD release of The Chairman and The Quiller Memorandum for 7th November 2006. Priced at $19.98 SRP each the films form part of the Fox Classic Spy Collection and are timed around the theatrical release of Casino Royale…
The Chairman - When Nobel-winning scientist Hathaway (Gregory Peck) receives a strange letter, the last place he expects it to lead him is into Communist China – as a spy! Sent to decode a formula that could save millions, Hathaway has no idea whom he can trust, and no assistance. Worst of all, his handlers haven't told him that the transmitting device implanted in his head is also a bomb. And if things get too hot, they're prepared to detonate!
Features include:
2.35:1 Anamorphic Widescreen
English Mono & Stereo
French & Spanish Mono
French & Spanish subtitles
The Quiller Memorandum - With little else to help him beyond sharp wits, a strong will and a very dedicated schoolteacher, American spy Quiller (George Segal) combs West Berlin for the headquarters of a shadowy neo-Nazi movement. Closing in on one disturbing truth, he quickly learns another: he is not the pursuer, but the prey – in a rapidly closing trap!
Features include:
English Mono
Commentary By Film Historians Eddie Friedfeld & Lee Pfeiffer

I sure hope Fox gets the OAR right on QUILLER. The last couple of times it's been shown on TCM, it was pan-and-scan. (I believe the recent R2 release had the OAR, so there is an alternative if Fox somehow messes up.) I'd just rest a lot easier if they had listed the OAR in the announcement.
