Another highly-requested world cinema classic. Glad I'll finally be able to watch it for the first time in HD.

So a lot of replay value, is that what you're saying? Wanted to see this for quite awhile but never got around to buying the DVD, I'll be grabbing this though.

I'm SO happy about this. Been wanting to see this one for ages, and being able to do so via a new restoration on Blu-ray makes it all the better.

The cover art is gorgeous, too. The red just works for me.

Can't speak to replay value. I watched the film in University not home video/tv.

Does anyone happen to know if the version streaming on Criterion Channel is the same transfer we’ll be getting on the disc?

After seeing the screen captures I'm glad I held off on this title. Despite the touting of a new 2K scan it's easy to tell the master used has been degrained and sharpened. There's black edge halos. Very disappointing.

Saw a nice layer of grain and detail was lovely when I watched it on my 65in the other night, the video looked very nice. I've NEVER heard of a "black edge halo" on anything before.
The audio to me sounded a bit scratchy and distorted in moments, but for the last little while I've been having this sneaking suspicion that my center speaker is not doing so well, so it could be an issue on my set up.
