Sorry, RDA, missed your question.

Optimum are trying to balance their output -- British classics/Ealing, European classics/World Cinema, contemporary films/blockbusters. Plein soleil appears to be prepared to be part of the Studio Canal Collection, together with Arizona Dream. I will do my best to have a firm answer for you next week.

On the other hand, Cross of Iron, which is coming up soon, is basically a Optimum/Kinowelt release (just like many Studio Canal Collection titles were; in fact, this was a title which was initially planned to be part of the Collection). Don't miss it. It uses a brand new transfer (new restoration). Optimum are also bringing Ice Cold in Alex. Fantastic film, also a lovely transfer.
