Third Window Films Discussion Thread - Page 86 - Blu-ray Forum

I have all but one of their BDs. I hadn't bothered with their DVDs as I already have a lot of them as fancy SEs from Korea, Japan etc. I just decided to stock up on their DVD catalogue as well. There are some excellent films on DVD only.

Third Window Films is temporarily closed due to hospitalization of its owner Adam Torel. Back catalogue titles and current releases can still be ordered through Amazon and other sites, though upcoming releases may need to be put on indefinite hold. Love and Peace may be released on time or not, hopefully an update may be possible within the next few days. Thanks for your constant support!

Really hope is nothing too serious.

So it seems like will have to wait for "Kids return" and " A Scene". Wonder if "Lowlife Love" is affected by this.

Oh dear. Get well soon Adam

He's always seemed like such a nice guy, his awesome customer service was a big part of why I've got hooked on the label. I really wish him well.

awful news, hope he gets well soon.

All the best to Adam. I don't know how I missed this. I noticed they've posted an update on social media:

Dear all,
Thanks for all the kind words, it means a huge amount to me!!!

On a long road to recovery, but hopefully things will work out well enough and Third Window can continue to go strong this year! While health issues still mean that delays may happen here and there, I will work hard to make sure things run as smooth as possible! First off I want to keep things on track at least for the release of LOVE & PEACE, which is a film I love so don't want to deprive you guys from seeing it asap!

Thanks again and I hope to keep on being able to bring these great Asian films to the you all!

Adam Torel

Great news, plus it sounds like Love & Peace and the Kickstarter version of Lowlife Love ate still on track.

Hope Adam continues to feel better.

Never had any works on bluray before
Small box set in the works!"

This would be that then

Is it just me or is Kikujiro really, really quiet?

I've really had to crank up my amp.

huntauk · 06-18-2016, 09:58 PM

I seem to remember having to put the volume up a couple of notches too. Not that it bothered me, a fantastic feelgood film. To think, I was going to give it a miss as the synopsis didn't sell it to me, until Rapta guilted me into ordering after saying how could anyone not like Kikujiro. Glad I watched it in the end, a nice contrast to Kitano's gangster films.

Ste7en · 06-18-2016, 10:14 PM

Oh, I agree. A wonderful little film. With an excellent score.

I was just surprised how low the audio is. Cheers!

And some of Kitano's best looking photography too.
