After you’re done watching the teaser for Dunkirk a few times, it’s time to brush up on a classic in the genre. Stanley Kubrick‘s 1957 anti-war film Paths of Glory has been treated with a new trailer ahead of a Blu-ray treatment in the U.K. by Masters of Cinema. The trailer for this new restoration features crisp touch-ups on the wonderful framing and 35mm grain of Kubrick’s early masterwork, along with a slew of reviews — including it being hailed as Kubrick’s “best film.”
In addition, Masters of Cinema have also restored Ken Loach‘s iconic British drama Kes, which will arrive on Blu-ray as well this fall. Recently named as one of Bourne director Paul Greengrass‘ top ten films, Kes tells the story of a 15-year-old working class boy, and also holds a place as one of the top 10 films by the British Film Institute.
See the trailers for both restored classics below.
Paths of Glory arrives on U.K. Blu-ray on September 19th, ahead of Kes on November 7th.
