Sam Mendes' Oscar nominated World War I epic, 1917, will be yours to own very soon and Universal Pictures has released all the details on the upcoming release.

1917 was one of my favorite films of last year and I'm hoping that even with top notch surround sound and 4K capabilities that this film can capture the magic it had on the big screen while at home. Probably one of  the most visually arresitng films I saw all of 2019. The film features a stellar cast including Dean-Charles Chapman, George MacKay, Daniel Mays, Colin Firth, and Benedict Cumberbatch
