Earlier this morning, Fox Searchlight’s 127 Hours racked up a total of six Oscar nominations, most notably in the Best Picture and Best Actor categories. In an announcement to retailers, Fox Home Entertainment will release 127 Hours on Blu-ray and DVD on March 1st.
Based on true events, 127 Hours follows Aron Ralston (James Franco), a dare-devil outdoorsman who gets trapped under a boulder while canyoneering alone in the Utah mountains. As hours turn into days, Ralston embarks on a personal journey in which he relies on the memories of family and friends – as well as his own courage and ingenuity – to turn adversity into triumph!
The Blu-ray includes over an hour of extra footage and behind-the-scenes looks. From sweeping and majestic views of Blue John Canyon to the intimate scenes with Ralston trapped in the crevice, to the intricate weaving of the soundscape of the dessert available in 5.1 DTS HD Lossless surround sound, the Blu-ray format provides the viewer with the highest quality cinematic visual experience possible.
It will be available on Blu-ray for the suggested retail price of $39.99 and on DVD with a SRP of $29.98.
