Calamari Union is like Discreet Charm? That's fantastic since it's my favorite Bunuel and I love pretty much all of his films. I'm now hoping that this set isn't limited to three films because my appetite has been whet. Thanks for the heads up, mteller. I've just been looking for a version that wasn't youtube quality.

Scope-ratio Eclipse films?
Is Criterion purposely avoiding the inclusion of scope-ratio films in its Eclipse boxes? Peace.

You're the one who's wrong. The "a "Scope widescreen deserves singles rather than bundled up in cheap set! attitude at Criterion" totally sold me. Now, in addition to the western cinema-talkie-auterist bias there's an aspect ratio bias too!domino harvey wrote:It's not even remotely a good point. "There's no German films in the Eclipse line yet, this must mean all German-language films are going to be Criterions." It's just a coincidence that no Eclipse title has been in 'Scope yet, period.

To deny this so flippantly is to prove the tangentially related point about Criterion's fan base and the attendant mass media attention with regard to both group's reception of Criterion's product.Tribe wrote: Now, in addition to the western cinema-talkie-auterist bias
In other words, thank you kind sir. =D>

I did and never received a reply, but I seldom do. I don't email them often, but the last time I heard back regarding a title inquiry was a year ago (I asked about Poison), although Tamara came though for me last fall when my copy of Juliet of the Spirits was missing its booklet.justeleblanc wrote:Has anyone asked Criterion about Alain Robbe-Grillet? I believe his first four films are all owned by Como Films (if they have not all reverted back to his estate).
I also have some pretty horrendous bootlegs of all four and wouldn't mind the upgrade.
