The Dam Busters has been given a 4K restoration ahead of a cinematic re-release to celebrate the 75th anniversary of one of the most iconic missions of World War II.
The restoration is part of a Royal Albert Hall event taking place on 17 May marking 75 years since the Dam Busters Raid and being simulcast in 300 cinemas nationwide.
A brand new Collector’s Edition of the film will be available on DVD / Blu-ray / EST via Studiocanal’s Vintage Classics label from 4 June, with extras including an exclusive ‘Making of The Dam Busters’ documentary.
Today we bring you a first look at it, the classic scenes now with a razor-sharp crispness, the bouncing bombs bouncier than ever.
