A Special Day Blu-ray REVIEW



It is great to see that Ettore Scola, one of the true (remaining) giants of Italian cinema, is finally in the Criterion Collection. Hopefully, we will see more of his films soon. The new 4K restoration is stunning



There is only one film from Scola on Blu-ray in the U.S., but if you are interested in his work these releases from Gaumont are Region-Free and English-friendly. Wonderful films. I also included Scola's directorial debut, Let's Talk About Women, which is out only on DVD in France. It is English-friendly, but this release has been very difficult to get. So track down a copy now if you want it. The film is as entertaining as Dino Risi's Il Sorpasso, which Scola scripted. Again with Vittorio Gassman
