Never seen or even heard of this movie, but glad to see Studio Canal continuing their great work.

Oh my god day ONE. This is CRAZY!! Awesome pick for first Bunuel 4k.

Whatever vague plans I had of buying the Criterion boxset have been killed dead. Good.

Whacked-out surrealism in 4K! I'm in!

Mother****ers! I already own two copies of this from Studio Canal (original UK release and the Bunuel box) and the Criterion box!

tama · 05-09-2022, 03:22 PM

Wonder if this will be a U.S. Criterion release soon. I think CC made a deal with SC on some titles recently.

andantelise · 05-10-2022, 02:35 AM

Amazing news! I completely missed this thread when it was created. Day 1 for sure. I don't care who releases this, as long they have superior encodes.

The UK release is set for 20 June 2022:

Cremildo · 05-10-2022, 02:39 PM

I wish they had used the rather iconic theatrical poster for the cover art but that won't prevent me from adding it to my collection.

Extras (translated from the Amazon.de link)

-Critical analysis by Prof. W. Evens
-Interview with Jean Claude Carriere
-Scene analysis by film critic Charles Tesson
-Interview with Charles Tesson
-trailers

The Criterion Blu has some good features not included here, so it might be worth waiting to see if Criterion releases a UHD in the US, for those of us who don't own the Criterion Blu.

Id like to think Fidelity in Motion are handling the encode otherwise it could be a gamble. Fingers crossed
