I really like Christopher Nolan and I own all his films but this. I heard this was really good, so absolutely going to get this!

Dave_6 · 09-17-2012, 10:16 PM

Hell yes!

MifuneFan · 09-17-2012, 10:17 PM

Those extras sound

So since this is a Criterion release, this is pretty much guaranteed region locked isn't it?

Yes.

That just made my day

By the way, if you have Netflix and want to see this before paying the Criterion price for a 70 minute film, you can stream it.

TauHeel05 · 09-17-2012, 10:57 PM

Fn Word! This is fantastic news!

Idiot E. Que · 09-17-2012, 10:57 PM

Dayum, this is going to be a significant upgrade from the region 2 DVD I'll bet. Can't wait.

Snicket · 09-17-2012, 10:59 PM

Has anybody ever seen this? How was it?

xheatowin · 09-17-2012, 11:01 PM

I've never heard of this movie. Is this Nolan's first film?

Yes. This would be his first feature after a run with the short films: Tarantella, Larceny, and Doodlebug.

Great concept. My recommendation depends on how you are generally with directors' early indie work. How do you feel about, say, THX1138 and early Kubrick like Killer's Kiss?

Morsoth · 09-18-2012, 12:02 AM

I'll blind buy this one.

I still have to buy "Insomnia" and "The Machinist" and I'll have the whole collection!

It has an indie feel to it, but the film is unmistakably Nolan, it features non-chronological story telling and a theme of altered perceptions of reality. If you enjoyed Memento, I imagine you may like this as well.

Thanks for the replies. I generally like/love indie work of early directors (excluding THX1138). I'll have to check this out on Netflix.

The Machinist wasn't done by Christopher Nolan.

Awesome news!

Ever since I saw this one a couple of years ago, I thought that a Criterion release would make sense. I'm so happy that they're releasing it!
