The studio will be polishing thirteen of its most beloved titles, with the full list including All Quiet On The Western Fron t, The Birds , Buck Privates , Dracula (1931), Dracula (Spanish language), Frankenstein , Jaws , Schindler’s List , Out Of Africa , Pillow Talk , Bride Of Frankenstein , The Sting and To Kill A Mockingbird .
The celebration will begin with the release of To Kill A Mockingbird on Blu-ray later this month, whilst the rest of the titles will be extensively restored and released throughout the year.
Universal has also redesigned its company logo to reflect the centenary celebrations, and the new image will appear in front of all Universal releases from March onwards.
