Persona being better than all of them.

That goes without saying.

However, I was thinking more in terms of the absence of God theme.

Maybe Criterion could get their hands on "Husbands and Wives" or "Deconstructing Harry" or "Interiors". I don't know how much some of the phantom pages ultimately mean.

Woody Allen phantom page was up last year at some point, with other phantom pages suggesting a Take the Money and Run release.

That's very much what Persona has always been about for me.

Hmm...I guess you're right. I never really viewed it in those terms, but I can definitely see it.

So Only Angels Have Wings, Barcelona, Phoenix, I guess they are preparing to announce today.

Add an upgrade, plus maybe Boyhood.

Please
Written on the Wind or
Magnificent Obsession or
Summertime or
The Fugitive Kind

By the way, I thought the Before Trilogy would come before Boyhood.

Was at Costco at lunch. They had:

Colonel Blimp
Red Shoes
Shallow Grave
My Beautiful Laundrette
A Night to Remember
Topsy-Turvy

so British theme

If Jon Mulvaney hopes to live long enough to see his grandchildren, he will use whatever influence he has to do the right thing.

...otherwise I cannot guarantee his safety.

As if the phantom pages weren't proof enough, by going to next spine in A Poem is a Naked Person:

Possibly A Touch of Zen or Dragon Inn based on yesterday's phantom page. Or maybe both.

[filmmusic]

In regular conditions, how much would it be still until announcements?
1 hour?

I'd love both to happen. It would be a missed opportunity to not use "Two by Hu" if you ask me. I mean sure, I could import but this would be way more convenient.

I can't figure out why Criterion hasn't released Summertime or The Last Wave yet in BD. These titles keep getting pushed to the back of the closet for some reason. I ended up importing the japanese BD release for Summertime a while back because I got fed up waiting for Criterion to get off their asses.

Or the Criterion forum thread.
The link was there too.

I'm truly embarrassed to say that I've never seen Only Angels Have Wings.

If Phoenix does indeed happen, I'll be all over that. What a film.

I was initially thinking that yesterday, but there weren't enough for me to say, "Oh, that's definitely coming." If I recall correctly, there were three phantom pages for three different Japanese actors or directors.

Hmm, but the link I posted has always said 404 Error, the link that should not be there is the one from A Poem is a Naked Person page, it is still there, says Spine #806, and it gives away the name of the film in the link even if it doesn't work.
