Agreed on all counts. However, if it has to be Olive, then so be it. I really just want it in HD. If Olive drops the ball and serves up a sub-par transfer, you know someone else will serve up an improved HD release, even if in another country. Of course, if Criterion does it, and properly, all of that could be avoided.

I'd love to delve into a horde of special features about the production. I want to know about Polanski's attitude toward it during filming, and would like to know about what drove him to tell this particular story, in the fashion that he did. Additionally, I want him to speak openly about the attempts at macabre humor, as there are far too many people who insist that there isn't a shred of comedy to be found in the film, which I find odd.
