Universal Pictures Home Entertainment announced this past
week that writer/director Tom Ford’s film adaptation of Austin Wright’s 1993
novel “Tony and Susan,” which journeyed a long-and-winding road to the screen
as Nocturnal
Animals.
This often-violent story within a story teams Amy Adams with
Jake Gyllenhaal and will be available as both DVD and Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack
product offerings on Feb. 21.
The ARR works out to 95 days and box office receipts were
$10.6 million.
The release appears to be timed to take advantage of the
Oscar buzz for Amy Adams in the Best Actress category — almost a sure bet
nomination for her performance in Arrival. We shall see on Tuesday, January 24, if this
is a winning strategy for a film that underperformed theatrically (considering
the star power).
Bonus features are a three-part making-of production
featurette — “Building the Story,” “The
Look of Nocturnal Animals” and “The Filmmaker's Eye: Tom Ford.”
