We’ve just heard that The City Of Lost Children, the epic, classic film from Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Marc Caro is set for the 4K home format soon. The film will debut with a new restoration on the 4K Ultra-HD format, as well as standard Blu, DVD, and digital on 3rd April.
The film is fantasy adventure from Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Marc Caro, creators of the critically acclaimed 1991 cult hit Delicatessen. They bring their surreal vision to the story of Krank, a tormented scientist who sets about kidnapping local children in order to steal their dreams and so reverse his accelerated ageing process. When Krank’s henchmen kidnap his brother, local fisherman and former circus strongman One (Hellboy’s Ron Perlman) sets out on a journey to Krank’s nightmarish laboratory, accompanied by a little orphan girl called Miette (Judith Vittet).
The film features costumes from Jean Paul Gaultier (The Fifth Element) and a haunting score by Angelo Badalamenti (Twin Peaks, Mulholland Dr.)
