Hi Pro-B,

Sorry to bump an old thread, but is there any chance this will get a blu-ray release? It's been sitting in my Amazon cart for awhile, and I'd hate to get it then have the BD come out.

Thanks!

This is a great documentary. I streamed it on Netflix a few months back. I had made a similar request for a BD in the Kino thread then too, I hope it happens. Kino actually has a lot of great documentaries in their catalog from what I've seen. I'd love to have compilations of their documentaries in a boxset. I think that might sell better than just selling one documentary.

I haven't contacted Kino directly about this one, so I'll try and do that this week.

Good idea! I just contacted them, FWIW: contact@kinolorber.com
Sure hope it happens. How neat would it be, to have a bonus feature slideshow of his work....all in HD.
