Portrait of a Lady on Fire - Blu-ray Forum

bunyboy · 06-08-2020, 09:43 PM

Hi All,

Does anyone have info on how this release compares to the Criterion? I can't find any reviews or details anywhere online as yet...

Sifox211 · 06-08-2020, 09:59 PM

It’s all there in the sticky Artificial Eye thread in this forum... but we could do with a thread of its own for this wonderful film!

RazorwireRyan · 06-08-2020, 11:22 PM

Apparently it has some extras that aren't on the Criterion, such as an audio commentary with Sciamma, the two leads and I think the cinematographer too? And a near hour long process video of the paintings from the film being created. I was buying the AE release just to show the film to my fiancee asap, but it's very nice to see that it will be worth a double dip for exclusive extras on each.

Sifox211 · 06-09-2020, 07:56 AM

Now I'm at my computer and not on a phone, I'll copy in some of the relevant info:

AE edition features:

Audio Commentary with director Céline Sciamma, actors Adèle Haenel and Noémie Merlant, and cinematographer Claire Mathon
"Paintings by Hélène Delmaire" documentary (55:07)
Interview from 2019 with artist Hélène Delmaire on creating the paintings for the film (11:51) [same as on Criterion]
Trailer (1:58)

According to minister_x, the commentary is in French with (optional) English subtitles.

Criterion features:

New 4K digital master, with 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack on the Blu-ray
New conversation between director Céline Sciamma and film critic Dana Stevens
New interviews with actors Adèle Haenel and Noémie Merlant
Interview with cinematographer Claire Mathon from the 2019 Cannes Film Festival
Interview from 2019 with artist Hélène Delmaire on creating the paintings for the film
PLUS: An essay by film critic Ela Bittencourt

The video changes between split-screen and single screen to show the creation of the paintings from scratch. It's fascinating, in my opinion, just letting the creation of the art unfold in front of you, but it's not a documentary on Delmaire - more a documentation of Delmaire at work.

EDIT: Here's a photo of a few seconds in to the opening chapter ("Premier Portrait") to illustrate:

So AE doesn't use the same master as Criterion?

You do realise it's the SAME master, right? Criterion likes to say stuff is "new" when it really isn't to sell more copies.

Boom.

I'm region-free, so I might pick this up with my next Amazon UK order so I can save some bucks vs. the Criterion.

RazorwireRyan · 06-11-2020, 11:44 PM

The follow-up that no one was waiting for. I finished the audio commentary. It seems the cinematographer only shows up for ONE scene of the commentary, about two minutes. And the two leads don't really have many spots to talk either. At first it sounds like everyone was recorded separately, but in the third act there's one stretch where Sciamma is talking with the two actresses briefly. So overall it's a fairly formal commentary, that I'd love to know the behind the scenes on. It's certainly more focused than having them all talking together but I would have liked a tad more from the two leads. Lots of really great insight though, I still thoroughly enjoyed it

DanielC · 06-09-2020, 08:08 AM

I'll stick with Criterion on this one. The art is wonderful and I don't care for audio commentary.

Sifox211 · 06-09-2020, 08:22 AM

I'll probably buy the AE but what I really want is a UHD!

Someone asked Artificial Eye of Twitter if they'd do a UHD for this & Paraste. They replied that they might possibly do one for the latter but no mention of one for the former.

Pity they're NOT doing a UHD for this considering it was "shot in 7K, using 8K as a reserve to be able to stabilize the image when it became necessary in post production." & definitely needs one much more than Parasite does.

Would have been interesting to see in UHD as its certainly a good looking film but honestly I found it rather slight, not much chemistry between the leads IMHO and on pretty well worn/safe ground politically.

bunyboy · 06-09-2020, 10:59 AM

Thanks all! Extras sound great. Audio commentary is fantastic news!

JoePo · 06-09-2020, 03:57 PM

I imagine the difference is that Parasite won the Oscar for best picture whereas almost no one has heard of Portrait (which I saw at the cinema (remember those?!) And loved) and will sell very few units on blu ray and would sell pretty close to none on UHD.

What’s the encode like on this release?

Sorry to repost but nobody answered me before. Any answer would be helpful, even just the general impression you got.

It looked good to me and I didn’t notice any issues, but I’m no expert

BDInfo scan:

The film comes with both 5.1 and 2.0 audio options. The second 2.0 track is the audio commentary with director Céline Sciamma, actors Adèle Haenel and Noémie Merlant, and cinematographer Claire Mathon. The second English subtitle file is for the commentary.

All subtitling is in white font.

Hope all is well. Would like to know, would this play on a region A player, or is fully locked to B?

Being digitally shot I expect them to be the same. I just picked up all the specs from the Criterion site.

And a near hour long process video of the paintings from the film being created. I was buying the AE release just to show the film to my fiancee asap, but it's very nice to see that it will be worth a double dip for exclusive extras on each.

RazorwireRyan Blu-ray Guru Member since:Aug 2011 Location:Norway/Wales 4K collection:1 Blu-ray collection:897 Trading Score:3	The follow-up that no one was waiting for. I finished the audio commentary. It seems the cinematographer only shows up for ONE scene of the commentary, about two minutes. And the two leads don't really have many spots to talk either. At first it sounds like everyone was recorded separately, but in the third act there's one stretch where Sciamma is talking with the two actresses briefly. So overall it's a fairly formal commentary, that I'd love to know the behind the scenes on. It's certainly more focused than having them all talking together but I would have liked a tad more from the two leads. Lots of really great insight though, I still thoroughly enjoyed it

JoePo Expert Member Member since:Jun 2018 Location:Bristol 4K collection:291 Blu-ray collection:2350 iTunes collection:1	I imagine the difference is that Parasite won the Oscar for best picture whereas almost no one has heard of Portrait (which I saw at the cinema (remember those?!) And loved) and will sell very few units on blu ray and would sell pretty close to none on UHD.
