The Godard title is, of course, better known as "Breathless".
looks like "Senso" is the only title exclusive to Germany I guess.
don't think that one is scheduled for a UK release as part of this series.
not positive though.
I wish it was a little easier to keep track of all the titles being released across all countries.
Seems like some titles are released everywhere, but a few end up only coming to one of maybe two of the countries--like "3 Days Of the Condor".
That one didn't seem to get a UK release.
makes it hard to keep track of them all.
great series though.

I have the UK Ladykillers on pre order as I cannot stand the Tom Hanks remake of it at all.

As long as Senso is somewhat English friendly, I'll buy it from wherever.

And Breathless for me too, and that's all from this lot.

Will these releases also follow the digibook route?

here's a new one I didn't even know was out--
http://www.amazon.de/Sehnsucht-Studi...026421&sr=1-11
edit: apparently that is "senso"-the German title.
I see now that same title is shown above.
didn't even notice that.
