There is at least one other fan, you are certainly in the minority though. Maybe the dude I sold my copy to off the board here will join you if he ever bothers to watch it. He said he would try it, but life often interferes with plans.

I love director Chen Kaige, and Yellow Earth and Farewell My Concubine are astounding films

I love the art for this film. I have the poster hanging in my entrance hallway with the woman smoking the cigarette. Such a fantastic poster. The only thing that could have make it better was having Jennifer Connolly featured in it.

Has anyone who received it already checked out the transfer? This is one of my most anticipated releases of the year to be honest, hoping it looks great!

It's not in KLSC's track record to release a region free disc. Anything is possible, but it's most certainly not expected.

It's being released by Kino Lorber. If it's not region locked, it'll be a miracle.

Looks great indeed. Very nice improvement over the old Shout disc.

I sold that copy recently for more than what the new one cost luckily

Not seen it. But after reading this, I placed my order.

It's a great little film, I doubt you'll be disappointed.

The screenshots look pretty good, certainly an improvement over the old Shout Blu-ray... colors look especially vivid.

My pre-order shipped yesterday from Bull Moose, so should be here by Monday.

Was it the bottom two NSFW pics that swayed you?

My copy is on its way from WowHD.

dylrichard02 · 04-30-2021, 01:37 PM

Bull Moose shipped mine yesterday! I'm very excited to watch this again, it's been years.

Certainly sounds like my cup of tea.

They had nothing whatsoever to do with it...

Yeah this movie has a certain decadent flair to it that's highly entertaining.

drb124 · 05-01-2021, 02:28 AM

Looking forward to this one, but waiting on some comparisons before buying since I have the shout already.

WillTurner · 05-03-2021, 06:28 AM

Has anyone that ordered this from Amazon gotten a shipping notice yet? The product page shows its release date is May 4th, but for some reason it's showing it won't be delivered until June 9th :-(

Nope. Ordered my copy on April 12th. Hope that June 9th estimate is wrong.
