As far as I know, D'ailly only does keep case/full slip editions. Haven't seen a lenti or steelbook from them. So safe to assume this will be a full slip keep case release.

I've never seen, or heard of this film. However, after reading the review for the US disc, it seems like something I would love. This is definitely a cool choice from D'ailly, who has previously released Moon, Lord of War, Kamikaze Girls, Million Dollar Baby, The Reader, Shine, The Road. More art-house. US disc released from Cinema Guild, UK disc from Artificial Eye. That right there is enough for me to blind buy. Has all the special features as the US disc, which is quite a lot.

Bleak and glacially paced, Béla Tarr's films are most definitely not for everyone, and The Turin Horse is especially moribund, a heavy allegory on the pointlessness of life and the finality of death. It's unquestioningly one of the most beautiful films of the last few years, though, and those with the patience and philosophical mindset to endure/enjoy it will find it memorably austere. Cinema Guild's Blu-ray edition is simply stunning to behold, and the disc includes several worthwhile extras, including a commentary track by film critic Jonathan Rosenbaum and a nearly hour and a half-long interview with the director. Highly recommended for Nietzscheans, existential nihilists, and all fans of decidedly non-commercial cinema.
