And the best part is that, if you move fast enough, you can get it on Amz UK for £5.99

Is this region-free like MoC's City Girl, etc? I saw a forum post that says it is, but want to make sure. Wow, I go on BFI's site all the time, but the Anger films are hiding from me. The only way I see them is if I search for them. Oh well, found out now. lol.

Oh, lord yes. I've owned the BFI Kenneth Anger blu-ray for well over 1-1/2 years. It's well worth it. From what I recall, DVDBeaver has a review of the disc, as well.

Like seriously I go on BFI's site alot and have never seen Anger's films on there until I used the search for him today. It's like the catagories they have don't have his films in any of them. What a surprise.

Question, Scorpio Rising does have all the songs still intact correct?

See what happens when I post a Hopper picture? I get Anger's films on blu-ray, that's what.

herzog4life · 04-15-2011, 07:03 PM

And I know this is off topic, but anybody know any other good region free uk discs that I can pair with the Anger set? I own the region free MoC already.

JediFonger · 04-15-2011, 07:04 PM

luved it. while it's obviously not Chaplin himself nor even close to the skills demonstrated by the original Vaudeville cast (it's a lost art really), the video displayed the types of shenanigans that the tramp used to get himself into.

CG, the older BFI discs were just on sale about a month ago and some are still inexpensive from Amazon UK. The Anger is still on sale and as CC said, has been around for a while and is a great compilation. A super steal at less than $15 shipped. Wish I paid that a year or so ago.

Unfortunately though, some of those blu only titles are going oop in favour of re-issue in dual format; titles like Herostratus and the Pasolini Trilogy of Life are already oop on Amz UK.

Just be aware that a lot of the earlier BFI blu-ray-only discs are now being discontinued to be replaced by dual-format releases. That is the reason that the prices have dropped so drastically on those earlier releases. A lot of people have gotten cancellation e-mails from Amazon UK within the past week for some of the titles. I'm not sure when the dual-format releases will start arriving to the online sites.

I just got a blu of Red Desert by Michelangelo Antonioni yesterday and I'm looking to off it... If you're Canadian and interested I'll mail it COD. pm me an offer, chances are I'll take you up on it.

There not changing Anger's release are they? I can't order it today (as my credit card has a charge that needs to be put back on before I order anything else). So just in case the sale of that blu-ray won't be gone Monday or something. Thanks again everybody.

Probably Spider - they appear to be re-issuing as far back as Salo and Nighthawks; but stock does not yet seem to be an issue on Amazon.
