It won 4 Oscars, rated 8.2 on IMDb, 96% on RT, made $160m on a $15m budget... It's not like it's been treated like space cowboys 😁
Unforgiven was one of Clint's best movies. Doesn't' get the credit it should.
Many Microsoft Store's movies are MA, so that makes life easy, but in case of TV-series and non-MA movies you have to cast from the "Movies and TV" app. I dug up an old windows 10 phone (pretty decent high-end Nokia I got for free) and what do you know, it casts really easily, same with the Windows 8\10 app, just select the ellipses and select cast to streaming device. Not as nice as having an app on the streaming device, but if you've gotten TV series for free of very cheap (as most of us probably did) its nice to have this trick to cast. I still probably wouldn't buy unless its an MA movie

What's the work around for upgrading to UHD on Microsoft.
update: logout of the Microsoft store app, find the movie and buy it. it will prompt you to login, then you can purchase the upgrade. this method did not work in the website, only on the app.

Many have reported that signing out first, then clicking the desired resolution option and then signing in to purchase works to upgrade titles you already own. I have not tried this myself, but other posts have mentioned this technique

Yes that technique works on the Windows 10 PC movies and TV app.
I picked up "The Fugitive" so my kids finally understand the context when I yell "I don't CAAARE!" at them.
That said every time I buy a MA title from MS I have to disconnect my MS account and reconnect it on Apple devices to get the newly-purchased films to show up. Just a heads-up in case your library doesn't update like you think it should.
