The Big Heat 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray brings Fritz Lang’s ferocious 1953 noir to UHD in a stunning new restoration. One of the most ruthless entries in the classic noir cycle, the film follows a relentless homicide detective whose investigation into a crime syndicate spirals into a deeply personal crusade for vengeance. Glenn Ford delivers one of his toughest performances, while Gloria Grahame’s iconic turn as a doomed gangster’s moll and Lee Marvin’s sadistic heavy give the film its jagged, unforgettable edge. Stripped-down, morally scorched, and brimming with fatalistic fury, The Big Heat stands as one of Lang’s greatest Hollywood achievements, presented here in Dolby Vision with an essential slate of supplements.
