Mr. Insider, what about clues regarding this weekend announcements?

@Kino Lorber Insider,

what are the chances of this being brought to the 4K table;

We dropped the other 2000s title.

We're still looking into releasing the Leone/Eastwood trilogy. We're doing some tests.

Thanks for this recommendation, Gunsnroses092789! I just included Driftwood in my third "March Into April Sale" order. Even though I'm not a dog person, I just couldn't resist this beautiful face --




Yeah, I have a weakness for collies because I grew up watching the Lassie television series during the 1960s.

UPDATE: They resolved it within 15-20 minutes of filling out the form.

We love posts about your bounty, but for service concerns please use form (as you did). We've now done well over 4,000 orders and every now and then something happens.

- Please allow extra time, volume is immense and it's taking fulfillment house several days to pack orders once we approve and send to floor.
- Post office and UPS sometimes scans packages before they're delivered. Allow a few extra days before contacting us, even if it says package is delivered. Most of the time the packages have been arriving.
-Use the form, don't call or send open emails.
-We cannot answer slipcase availability questions.
-Please be nice, there are more of you than us and we try to take care of everyone.

No problem. Thanks for the response. I appreciate getting a slip. I got ones on Murphy’s Law and the Card Player. If I don’t it’s not a deal breaker. You guys have the best sales. Just put in a 2nd order yesterday. More than likely will be putting a 3rd order in. Thanks again.

Now that the dust has settled (for me) on the WAC sale, I placed my first Kino sale order. A couple of noirs and a couple of WSL titles. I’ll probably place another order or two before this sale is over.

[Show spoiler]

I’ll admit it. The last one I bought strictly for the cover art.

Shield for Murder is really good, I got it when KLI announced it was going OOP. O'Brien's tendency to wildly fluctuate in weight suits him well as the pudgy, corrupt cop in that film.

That may be the sweatiest Edmond O'Brien, Mr Flopsweat himself, has ever been in a single motion picture. Watching it you'll feel like running a towel over the disc just in case it's catching.

[ToonySpoonGoon]

anyone elses orders been "approved for packing" for like 5 days now? (nothing i ordered was out of stock)

[SeanJoyce]

Lightning-fast speed and excellent-packaging per the norm, kudos to you Kino.

Kicked off my pile with Link, which didn't disappoint. Stamp really classes things up here the same way Malcolm McDowell did with The Caller the following year.

I wonder why Chato's Land doesn't specify a new 2k remaster on the back the way Mr. Majestyk did?

My order had been "Approved for packing" for about 5 days but now it's moving. Kino typically has very good shipping times.

Coming Soon!

FILM NOIR: THE DARK SIDE OF CINEMA IX

TANGIER (1946)

TAKE ONE FALSE STEP (1949)
w/ William Powell & Shelley Winters

[Gunsnroses092789]

While I haven't seen any of these, I've heard of/been meaning to see all of them, and it looks like a strong set with a great cast.

[filmlover22]

not the strongest set, but at least 2 of the 3 seems to be decent/interesting. Probably more crime/mystery/drama than noir, but I am okay with that.

[Ned Brainard]

I'm not normally a film noir person (I don't hate noirs, but I don't have strong feelings for the genre), but the inclusion of films featuring William Powell and Deanna Durbin will lead me to pick up this set.

[kingdoxie]

I like how the noir sets are spaced out so I can pick one up each sale. V is on sale currently and VI should be on sale in June.

Hell, for some of these I would just be happy to have the original DVD extras (Even if just the theatrical trailer) and original artwork. Many of these are pretty big cult classics that had stacked editions released elsewhere around the world and we unfortunately were stuck with Olive's barebones releases.

I would buy a bonus-feature laden Blu of this in a hot minute! Not even any subtitles on the Olive release.

[Hammerlover]

LADY ON A TRAIN is a dandy little noir.

"Shield for Murder" kicks ass. O'Brien is extremely sweaty, as you mentioned, and extremely intense. Excellent film and performance from EOB.

[Zygmunt22]

Excellent news on Lady on a Train...a great noir/comedy/Christmas film with a top notch cast.
