Shout Factory has announced that it will celebrate the 75th anniversary of Leo McCarey's film Going My Way (1944) with a brand new Blu-ray release, which will be available for purchase on September 24th.
Technical specs and supplemental features to be included on this upcoming release have not yet been revealed by the label.
Synopsis:: A winner of seven Academy Awards*, the irresistible Going My Way lights up the screen as beautifully as it warms up the heart. Bing Crosby shines as Father O'Malley, a young priest new to an established but financially troubled parish. When his philosophies conflict with those of the curmudgeonly Father Fitzgibbon (Barry Fitzgerald), the unflappable Father O'Malley perseveres — eventually winning over his gruff superior and the parish with his fresh, inspirational approach.
Massively successful with critics, at the box office, and on the record charts (thanks in no small part to the timeless tune "Swinging On A Star"), Going My Way is an undeniable Hollywood classic.
