The Criterion Collection

[BarnDoor]

I recall Seven Days in May being among the last discontinued batch, so it's possible some are Warner Archive bound also.

Apparently it's with Shout, so maybe one for the Shout Select line?

Captain Blood

We really need Captain Blood on Blu-ray. That's Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland.

That's possible, of course, but I'm strictly referring to the list posted on their press site few days ago. And that list looks highly criterionesque.

Yeah, I don't see a Kubrick or a Scorsese title going from widely available WB Blu-ray to the Warner Archives.

I think Arsenic, Patt Garett, and Hedwig are almost certain at this point to come from Criterion, so I wouldn't really be surprised if all of them were with them.

That's a great list.

Hoping for Pat Garrett and Lone Star especially.

Two steps closer to a Cary Grant/ Katherine Hepburn boxset!

Round Midnight
The Roaring Twenties
The Philadelphia Story
Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid
O Lucky Man
Lone Star
Hedwig & The Angry Inch
Captain Blood
Bringing Up Baby
Arsenic and Old Lace

also...

Mean Streets
Barry Lyndon

The fact that these were listed as OOP in the same time as some of the titles licensed to CC, led me to believe that, perhaps, I'm on something here, and that this is not merely a coincidence. We shall see...

I would love to have Round Midnight.

Watched Jeanne Dielman last night.

Who would think that a movie about essentially "nothing" could be so wonderful?

And to think that Olivia de Havilland is still alive. She's STILL ALIVE!

I am so glad that this, The Ballad of Cable Hogue, will be released in two weeks:

I never even thought of the possibility of Hedwig. I LOVED that movie when I saw it back in college, but never picked up the DVD. It's possibly my favorite movie that I don't own.

The 2014 New Year's drawing featured a saxophone player in a porkpie hat. I thought at the that it might have been a clue for Round Midnight. It probably was a clue for something else, but I'd still love to see it get a Criterion release.

Peeling potatoes will never be the same.

Looks like there should be more Kiarostami blu-rays on the horizon.

Any Cary Grant and any Kate Hepburn is all welcome. Bring. It. On.

Don't tease me. Please don't tease me.

Can we get back to talking about Weird Science please? All this other stuff makes my brain hurt
