The Odds Against Them Were 10,000 to 1...But What the Hell!Director: Guy Hamilton
OVERALL: Blu-ray A-
OVERALL: Blu-ray A
US release for the original Dolby Stereo soundtrack, and it's lossless; the others are lossy.
The US is seemingly the only home video release to present the original Dolby Stereo 2.0 soundtrack, albeit with a 5.1 boost. All prior video releases (VHS, Laserdisc, DVD and indeed the non-US BDs) only offered a mono downmix.
Two versions of this film exist:
(1.) The original director's cut prepared by Guy Hamilton and scored by Ron Goodwin (126 minutes).
(2.) The edited US theatrical cut prepared by AIP (119 minutes). -
