I feel like it could fall in the “anti rom-com” it feels like a rom-com but with more drama.

He also played Bob Cobb…..excuse me, Maestro!

He told me there was nowhere to rent in Tuscany so excuse me if I don’t recognize that.

What a jerk.

[dkelly26666]

You know, the thing is, I share things all the time, too, but I actually SAY, "Some guy on the blu ray forums posted this and I thought it was so funny and I just thought I'd share this..." Or I'll actually name the person if I know their name.

But.....

Exactly, nothing wrong with reposting something, but give attribution.

Ciccio found one for me! Only 2 million lira. Such a deal!

I have to say that other than the Maestro, the only thing I remember about Chilly Scenes of Winter was that it featured Gloria Grahame near the end of her career.

New release of Red River coming out on June 20th. Almost certainly without the novel this time, possibly in a plastic case too

I noticed Criterion has already dropped the paperback wording from their list of extras on their site:

Old

July predictions/wishes/hopes/dreams

Floating Weeds
The Princess Bride 4K
The Heroic Trio / Executioners (or other multi-film set)
CODA 4K
Isle of Dogs 4K
The 400 Blows 4K (and/or Antoine Doinel set)

Last July, they released four 4K titles, and 2 Blu-rays, so I'm expecting a big month again (surely timed for the bi-annual B&N sales)

It would be a fantastic month if you get it right, but I'll keep doing the same thing I do every month since January 2010: hope for a "Z" (1969) blu-ray upgrade...

So the old one used a 4K master of the theatrical cut, while the new one will use a 2K master?

[dkelly26666]

My wishes:

After Hours
Antoine Doinel Set
or, Jean Eustache Set
Anything Bertolucci

No, I think the 4K wording was just an error when it was first announced. I was using the list of extras from the dedicated thread for the movie, but Criterion did update it on their site since, so I'll change that part of post to avoid confusion. The back cover, and booklet for the previous releases also say 2K:
