WONDERWALL

Wonderwall: Collector’s Edition DVD Box Set

This title is no longer available from Rhino Handmade.

However, numbered copies from the original edition may be available at select retailers.

An individually numbered, limited edition of 2,000 copies from Rhino Handmade.

1967 was The Summer Of Love. And the summer of a most curious British film called Wonderwall.

 Wonderwall tells the story of a timid but eccentric professor who finds a spy hole in his living room and becomes involved in a vibrant world of youth and music. He enters a world of fantasy and sexual chemistry. Discovering he no longer needs his microscopes, he is drawn towards images that transform him.

 Most music collectors know of Wonderwall from the soundtrack recorded by George Harrison and released on Apple Records. Now the motion picture for which Harrison picked up his pen and his guitar is being released on DVD for the first time anywhere by Rhino Home Video. The Wonderwall DVD features a pristine transfer of the re-edited director's cut (available for the first time on DVD); its George Harrison soundtrack -- with 30% more film music than was released on the original Apple album -- now re-mastered in Surround Sound at Abbey Road Studios; the Eric Clapton guitar track; a John Lennon poem; the psychedelic designs of The Fool; production stills and out-takes; and the option for French or Spanish subtitles. It also contains an additional 13-minute short entitled "Reflections On Love". Made in London in 1966, this Cinemascope featurette depicts the swinging London romance between a boy and a girl at a time when all they needed was love. And it contains a new musical soundtrack by Kula Shaker.
