Fellini's centennial is 2020 (b. 1/20/1920). Wondering if something big is being worked on to celebrate.

Isn’t the clip from The Pianist, not The Grand Budapest Hotel? Also the Fox bluray is lacking in features.

I see now. The only thing that came up for me was the first one before.

I scrolled back up to check that they were both there, and the middle one magically appeared that wasn't there last time, although not sure what it's from...The Great Escape?

I just imported "La Strada" from the UK, and at least outside of the US, it is indeed StudioCanal. The US rights could be different, I don't know. But I have the StudioCanal, Region B blu ray, and it is from the 4K restoration.

Are there good odds for these titles to see a Criterion release?

I'd be all over Husbands and One From the Heart.

I've refreshed the page several times, and only get the first image.

I keep hoping for Criterion and Studiocanal to work out a deal. Been quite a few good Clouzet movies released by SC Quai des Orfèvres, La Prisonnière & Le Corbeau

Plus I would kill for a Criterion Ealing Studio's box set.

For region free collectors if you are not familiar with this film do yourself a favor and get Touchez Pas au Grisbi Amazing film. You will not regret it.

...did he not say that? 7 + 3 = 10 in most mathematics circles.

Did not know that. Wow.

Is a Criterion release of The Great Escape seriously possible?

I hope so. Obviously it's one of my favorite movies.

But something keeps holding me back.

$62 for a 15 hour German television series on dvd...I can’t find the strength.

Maybe just in time for the Criterion Flash sale in addition

zackisthewalrus · 11-15-2018, 04:03 PM

I don’t know why, but I think they’re gonna announce West Side Story today. Last February was a big month (Night of the Living Dead and The Silence of the Lambs), and with the flash sale, I think they’ll aim to release a big seller. Plus, they’re been doing a LOT of MGM/UA titles recently.

The Hill (1965)

The Keep (1983)

Light Sleeper (1992)

Sholay (1975)

Wag the Dog (1997)
