The KL Rep announced over on the other forum that the following titles are going out of print due to poor sales, and adds that the list will expand to "200 to 300 titles at least" but
none of these have expired or will expire before 2021. We're just not printing more of these if they end up selling out, so technically these have become limited editions till our deals expire for them. And more to come.
Here's a small starting list:

Absolution (1978)
Angie (1994)
At War with the Army (1950)
Avalanche (1978)
Back Roads (1981)
Bad Man's River (1972)
Betsy’s Wedding (1990) | Holy Matrimony (1994) Double Feature
Boys (1996)
Captain Apache (1972)
The Cemetery Club (1993)
Cop-Out (1967) Stranger in the House
Crossing the Bridge (1992) | Indian Summer (1993) Double Feature
Eleni (1985)
Finders Keepers (1984)
For Love of Ivy (1968)
Funny Bones (1995)
Haunted (2002 Complete Series)
Hester Street (1975)
The High Commissioner (1968) Nobody Runs Forever
Kotch (1971)
Loophole (1981)
The Naked Face (1984)
Paris Holiday (1958)
The Revengers (1972)
Something Big (1971)
Star Slammer (1986)
Table for Five (1983)
A Town Called Hell (1971)
Two Much (1996) | Miami Rhapsody (1995) Double Feature
The Unholy Four (1970) Chuck Mool
War Between Men and Women (1972)
Who is Harry Kellerman and Why is He Saying Those Terrible Things About Me? (1971)
Shout if there are hidden gems in there—but it's mostly interesting that KL is letting titles go out of print now.


Eleni is absolutely brilliant. The third and last collaboration from director Peter Yates and the incredible screenwriter/novelist/playwright Steve Tesich,
it's a beautifully made film about Greek Civil War, a topic that has never been the subject of any other Hollywood film. I'm very partial to Who is Harry Kellerman...,
but I realize that's a controversial pick.

The Amazon listing for the upcoming La Marsellaise (1938) list an audio commentary by film critic Nick Pinkerton and a booklet essay by film scholar Dudley Andrew. I understand there should be an archival interview with Jean Renoir, has it been omitted?

The Amy Fisher Story (1993) with optional English subtitles
• Audio Commentary by Film Historian Sally Christie
• Trailers

aka The Long Island Lolita Color 96 Minutes 1.33:1 UNRATED
Drew Barrymore (Mad Love, 50 First Dates) sizzles in this unbelievable true story! On May 19th 1992, 17-year-old high school student Amy Fisher (Barrymore) fired a bullet into the head of Mary Jo Buttafuoco (Laurie Paton, TV’s The Commish), the wife of the bodyshop owner with whom she claimed to have been having a sexual affair. But in the explosive media frenzy that followed, did the truth become the most innocent victim of all? This is the sensational true story of lust, greed and obsession that shocked the nation. Barrymore stars as the notorious “Long Island Lolita,” the scheming teen from an unhappy home whose torrid relationship with Joey Buttafuoco (Anthony Denison, TV’s The Closer) led to a shocking suburban nightmare of prostitution, murderous assault and attempted suicide. This is the international theatrical version of the top-rated broadcast event, now containing uncensored scenes of graphic sexuality that couldn’t be shown on TV. Directed by Andy Tennant (Hitch, Sweet Home Alabama) and co-starring Harley Jane Kozak (The Favor).

It's a bummer there are no retrospectives for White Squall. As an amateur sailor and someone interested in Ridley Scott's "lost period" between Thelma and Gladiator, hearing cast & crew thoughts on a grueling shoot that amounted to a small ROI and relative obscurity would be fascinating.

Nah, I tend to think the woman who got cheated on and then shot in the face is probably still the victim in this scenario.

It’s high-voltage thrills as David Duchovny (The X-Files), Angelina Jolie (Salt) and Timothy Hutton (Q & A) square off in an edgy confrontation where the stakes are high... and the action is deadly.

Sands gets caught in a web of murder and mayhem as he grows far too close to Blossom’s dangerously seductive mistress (Jolie). Playing God is a potent action-thriller where passion and deception meet in a battle between good and evil. Co-starring Peter Stormare (John Wick: Chapter 2), Michael Massee (Lost Highway), Gary Dourdan (Alien: Resurrection), John Hawkes (Winter’s Bone) and Tracey Walter (The Hunter).

It was on the Anchor Bay DVD sleeve, not sure if we'll do the same. We'll most likely go with Deleted Scene.

For some reason, I vividly remember reading and loving a Cinefex article on the practical effects used in the scene in which Charlie Sheen has to jump out of a plane after a falling car to unlock the trunk and free a parachute-less Kinski. Even at 11, I knew the movie was not good, but I saw it in the (second-run) theater twice just because I enjoyed comparing what I read of the filming to final version of that sequence so much; strange that those brain cells have survived 25 years when I regularly forget where I'm going when I leave a room.
