Warner has announced that they will release How the West Was Won on August 26, 2008, day-and-date with the DVD re-issue.
The disc includes film historian audio commentary, the documentary “Cinerama Adventure,” the featurette “Making of How the West Was One,” and the original theatrical trailer. The package also contains a 32-page booklet with behind-the-scenes photographs and rare press materials.
The Blu-ray edition will exclusively feature a “SmileBox” version of the film that presents the image with a “unique curvature that virtually recreates the true Cinerama experience.”
