It is definitely coming to Blu-ray.

I've had Silent Running on my Amazon.uk wishlist for several months but for some reason earlier tonight I decided I want a Criterion release.

So they should make that happen.

Like right now.

Oh, and if they want to do A Room With a View, Glengarry Glen Ross, The Devils, City Girl and Rififi that would be cool too. And Peeping Tom and Dr Mabuse.

I really, really enjoyed this film, Octagon

The story it tells is very simple, but it is so profoundly moving.

You don't always have to have an original story to impress. Sometimes you could tell a familiar/old one, but when you do it with style, in your own way, you have something special.

I hope you also enjoy Gate of Hell.

Oh yeah, that reminds me - there was a really cool feature about cinematographer Boris Kaufman on the 12 Angry Men BD so I want The Fugitive Kind tomo...today too.

So Silent Running, A Room With a View, Glengarry Glen Ross, The Devils, City Girl, Rififi, Peeping Tom, Dr Mabuse and The Fugitive Kind. And Thief. And The Hunger and Lair of the White Worm. And the Harold Lloyd thing - Safety Last, is it?

That's what I want.

Ending was great! I didn't really like the movie (Weekend) as a whole. Started out good but then the plot was ditched and the movie jumped all over the place. I did admire the visuals and the weirdness of the movie but couldn't really follow it. May revisit in the future.

I heartily recommend it! I bought the MoC version when it was released. Glad to hear that the CC version and the MoC versions are virtually identical.

Cowboy300 · 03-15-2013, 12:24 PM

So today, let's do Zissou, Pianist, and Mulholland Drive.

Pro-B had me at 'The Heiji Era'. I've been a sucker for feudal Japan since Shogun hit the airwaves just before I started college.

Gate of Hell is postponed, as I'm moving to a new apt and need to save cash for that, plus the new car that's delayed until August now. 3 mice, with more stealing the bait out of the traps is enough for me. Time to move somewhere else that doesn't look like a crack den because the new property managers are slumlords. Don't rent from Metcap Living.

Anyone else hope that Criterion announces a Caesar related film today?

I hear ya. I'm moving at the end of June. My complaints are numerous. I'm just happy it's getting warmer because my building got screwed all winter on heat.

As for Caesar:

I think it's MGM owned. Not sure who would have the rights now though.
