Also officially coming to 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray on 3/28 is Edward Berger’s Best Picture-nominated All Quiet on the Western Front (2022) from MPI Home Video. There’s also a UK release coming from Altitude Film Distribution on April 24. They appear to be essentially the exact same package, complete with a 4K UHD disc, a Blu-ray, and Mediabook packaging with liner notes. The 4K will include both Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos audio. You can see that here (and also below)...
