Burn down the disco
Hang the blessed DJ
Because the music that they constantly play
It says nothing to me about my life
Even schaamteloos spammen:
Iemand interesse in een gesealde Great Adapations box met 4 titels (zie voor details criterion website)
Ruil tegen andere Criterions of Masters of Cinema is ook bespreekbaar!

Synopsis
A group of bourgeois cosmopolitans are invited to a mansion for dinner and inexplicably find themselves unable to leave, in Luis Buñuel’s daring masterpiece The Exterminating Angel. Made just one year after his international sensation Viridiana, this is a furthering of Buñuel’s wicked takedown of the rituals and dependencies of the frivolous upper classes, full of eerie and hilarious absurdity.

- - New, restored high-definition digital transfer
- - The Last Script: Remembering Luis Buñuel, a 2008 documentary featuring Jean-Claude Carrière and Jean Luis Buñuel

- - PLUS: A booklet featuring a new essay by film scholar Marsha Kinder and a reprinted interview with Buñuel
Synopsis
Simon of the Desert is Luis Buñuel’s wicked and wild take on the life of devoted ascetic Saint Simeon Stylites, who waited atop a pillar surrounded by a barren landscape for six years, six months, and six days, in order to prove his devotion to God. Yet the devil, in the figure of the beautiful Silvia Pinal, huddles below, trying to tempt him down. A skeptic’s vision of human conviction, Buñuel’s short and sweet satire is one of the master filmmaker’s most renowned works of surrealism.

- - A Mexican Buñuel (1995), 50-minute documentary by Emilio Maillé
- - New interview with actress Silvia Pinal

Synopsis
An unsung comic triumph from David Lean, Hobson’s Choice stars the legendary Charles Laughton as the harrumphing Henry Hobson, the owner of a boot shop in late-Victorian Northern England. With his haughty, independent daughter Maggie (Brenda De Banzie) decides to forge her own path, romantically and professionally, with the help of none other than Henry’ prized bootsmith Will (a splendid John Mills), father and daughter find themselves head-to-head in a fiery match of wills. Equally charming and caustic, Hobson’s Choice, adapted from Harold Brighouse’s famous play, is filled to the brim with great performances and elegant, inventive camera work.
Special Features
- - New high-definition digital transfer—restoration by the BFI National Archive, funded by the David Lean Foundation and StudioCanal
- - Audio commentary featuring film scholars Alain Silver and James Ursini, co-authors of David Lean and His Films

Synopsis
John Cassavetes’ directorial debut revolves around an interracial romance between Lelia (Lelia Goldoni), a light-skinned black woman living in New York City with her two brothers, and Tony (Anthony Ray), a white man. The relationship crumbles when Tony meets Lelia’s brother Hugh (Hugh Hurd), a talented dark-skinned jazz singer struggling to find work, and discovers the truth about Lelia’s racial heritage. Shot on location in Manhattan with a cast and crew made up primarily of amateurs, Cassavetes’ Shadows is a visionary work that is widely considered the forerunner of the independent film movement.
Special Features
- - Restored high-definition digital transfer
- - Video interviews with actress Lelia Goldoni and associate producer Seymour Cassel
- - Rare silent 16 mm footage of John Cassavetes and Burt Lane’s acting workshop
- - Restoration demonstration
- - Stills gallery featuring rare behind-the-scenes production photos
- - Trailer
- - English subtitles for the deaf and hearing impaired
- - PLUS: Essays by Gary Giddins and John Cassavetes
Synopsis
The disintegration of a marriage is dissected in John Cassavetes’ searing Faces. Shot in high-contrast 16mm black and white, the film follows the futile attempts of captain of industry Richard (John Marley) and his wife, Maria (Lynn Carlin), to escape the anguish of their empty marriage in the arms of others. Featuring astonishingly powerful, nervy performances from Marley, Carlin, and Cassavetes regulars Gena Rowlands and Seymour Cassel, Faces confronts suburban alienation and the battle of the sexes with a brutal honesty and compassion rarely matched in cinema.
Special Features
- - DISC ONE—THE FILM
- - New restored high-definition digital transfer
- - English subtitles for the deaf and hearing impaired
- - DISC TWO—THE SUPPLEMENTS
- - Seventeen-minute alternate opening sequence, from an early edit of the film
- - Cinéastes de notre temps (1968), an episode from the French television series dedicated to Cassavetes, featuring rare interviews and behind-the-scenes footage
- - Making Faces, a 2004 documentary including interviews with actors Lynn Carlin, Seymour Cassel, Gena Rowlands, and director of photography Al Ruban
- - Lighting and Shooting the Film, a short 2004 documentary Ruban explains how he and the crew achieved the distinct look of Faces
- - PLUS: An essay by Stuart Klawans

Simon of the Desert!! Woei! Cool, cool, cool.
Exterminating Angel komt ook direct. Wel jammer dat ik die niet zo lang geleden nog gekocht heb.
Misschien ben ik wel een gokjunkie en een leugenaar, maar ik heb hulp nodig. Kan ik misschien wat geld van je lenen?
Scorsese te ruil
Bij Deepdiscount. Hij was in eerste instantie nog geldig voor de huidige 25%-sale, maar nu de releasedatum verzet is denk ik niet meer. Mijn order is nog niet geannulleerd, dus ik denk dat die nog wel doorkomt.
Uit de nieuwsbrief:
Volgens het forum zou het Friends of Eddie Coyle moeten zijn.
Hobson's Choice heb ik al op de David Lean-box, maar misschien zal ik deze versie ook wel aanschaffen. Die documentaire over Charles Laughton lijkt me interessant.

Het wordt hoog tijd dat ik me eens waag aan wat Criterion spul. De volgende twee zou ik heel graag willen bestellen maar heb geen CC.
The Red Balloon en The Documentaries of Louis Malle. Wie kan me helpen?
hehe,
De docu's van Malle zijn van Eclipse (by Criterion) en Red Balloon is een uitgave van Janus films in samenwerking met Criterion. Geen die hard criterions dus

"Note: I tested the Criterion Blu-ray disc on my Region-B hardware and I can confirm that this is indeed a Region-A “locked” release which those of you with Region-B only equipment will not be able to playback"
Treurig word ik ervan. Zo prachtige film en niet afspeelbaar op mijn blu-ray speler. Misschien koop ik hem voor het hebben.
Dat was al duidelijk toen ze eraan begonnen en het is natuurlijk erg logisch, maar het blijft jammer ja. De beste optie is volgens mij nog steeds om een BR drive in je, mits een vlotte, PC te zetten. Wat betreft deze film, Artifical Eye heeft een BR aangekondigd naar het schijnt, dus die zou je gewoon moeten kunnen kijken.
De gebruikte verpakking ziet er trouwens erg netjes uit, hoewel wel wat schadegevoelig. Ze nemen in ieder geval een stuk minder plek in dan reguliere keepcases en dat is altijd mooi meegenomen.
Ziet er goed uit idd.
