High Life makes Johanna Schneller’s 10 best films of 2010

Johanna Schneller writes :

“High Life. No one saw this terrific anti-caper (“Four hapless drug addicts plot to rob an ATM”), and that’s a shame, because it is witty, well-acted, tons of fun and – get this! – Canadian. It was made for peanuts, and if there were any justice in the world, it would have grossed millions. So go get the DVD right now, bid farewell to 2010, and start your new year right.”

For everyone who has been clamouring for information, “High Life” DVD release details for the USA and Canada are now available!

The disc will be available on March 16th, in the US at fine on-line and traditional retailers everywhere (and is already available for pre-order at most on-line retailers).

Canadian fans of the film will have to wait a couple of extra weeks until “early May”. (Although we are told we’ll be able to replace that with an exact date very shortly). In exchange for the wait, the Canadian DVD contains high-resolution copies of the interview and behind-the-scenes vignettes from the web, discrete Dolby 2.0 and Dolby 5.1 mixes, and the theatrical trailer for the film.

High Life fans outside of North America will have to hold on for more information about DVD releases in your area – but if you sign up to the mailing list we’ll send a note around when the film is available near you!

There are brand new video interviews with Timothy Olyphant, Stephen Eric McIntyre, Joe Anderson, and Rossif Sutherland now on their cast pages. These are great videos filled with some sneak peeks of clips from the film – so we hope you enjoy them!

“High Life” will be screening at the Whistler Film Festival this upcoming Saturday Dec 5. For more information please visit the official Whistler Film Festival website
