Nicolas Cage as Frank in Bringing Out the Dead
The Big Picture Bringing Out the Dead is the only collaboration between Italian-American screen legends Martin Scorsese and Nicolas Cage, but for years, the only way to get it on disc was via standard-definition DVD. Thanks to Paramount Home Entertainment, that's about to change. The 1999 film is being released on 4K Blu-ray for its 25th anniversary; the set will be available on September 17, 2024.
High-Def Digest reports that the disc will feature an all-new 4K transfer remastered from the original camera negative and overseen by Scorsese, cinematographer Robert Richardson, and editor Thelma Schoonmaker.
What Happens in 'Bringing Out the Dead'? Close Bringing Out the Dead centers around New York City paramedic Frank Pierce , who is dealing with burnout, depression, and hallucinations of a homeless girl he failed to save. The film follows him over the course of several eventful nights behind the wheel of an ambulance where he is paired with various partners, including the easy-going Larry , the religious Marcus , and the violent Tom .
Bringing Out the Dead was not a financial success when it was released, making $16 million USD on a $32 million budget, and reviews, as they were for many of Scorsese's 1990s films, were mixed. However, the intervening years have been kind to the film, and it has been reappraised as an underappreciated entry in Scorsese's filmography. Cage also considers the film to be one of the best movies he starred in.
Bringing Out the Dead will be released on 4K for the first time on September 17, 2024. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.
