I recently received an email from one of the guys at Tartan, here's what he said:
Thank you very much for your comments regards The Phantom Carriage. We are still releasing the 2 disc set with the Image Makers and the date is now February 11th 2008. I apologise for all the delays surrounding this title but we want to get it looking the best it can before releasing it.
There are no plans at the current time to release any Pudovkin titles although I think we still have the rights to Mother.

Oh well, at least I've got my order in with MovieMail!
However this reminds me - did Tartan ever release Blood and Bones, which I remember them advertising (I think I even pre-ordered that one from MovieMail a year or so ago!)

I just got THE RITE at a reduced price from Amazon. In the booklet it says this film was filmed after SHAME in just 7 days. This is at odds with the info from this site http://www.bergmanorama.com/films/rite.htm which puts it just before SHAME but released after (in 1969).
Can anyone confirm the dates from another source?

Official site here although no definitive info on production order, but confirms screening dates as SHAME (1968) & THE RITE (1969)..."There's always such a lot of pretentiousness surrounding films. Such a lot of apparatus. Shooting takes forty-five days, fifty days, sixty-five days. For Fellini it takes twenty-eight weeks and there's a hell of a hullaballoo and cost God knows how much. So I thought: Hell, I'll gather four of my close friends and we'll rehearse for four weeks and then we'll shoot it. I figure out I'd be able to shoot it in nine days."

Has anyone seen any of René Allio's films and have any comments on this director?

I've seen René in 'Allo 'Allo. Not sure it's Criterion material. Eclipse perhaps.colinr0380 wrote:Has anyone seen any of René Allio's films and have any comments on this director?

I'm surprised by this news - I thought that since the US arm was releasing some films that Tartan UK had not (rather than purely reissuing from the UK back catalogue) that it was in a pretty good state. Apparently not.domino harvey wrote:the US branch of Tartan has been shuttered

I can now confirm this - it's a superb two-disc set that's mostly English-friendly, bar the deleted scenes and commentaries. But most of the other extras have English subtitles.MichaelB wrote:By all accounts the Hungarian two-discer is pretty phenomenal - and English-friendly.kaujot wrote:Come on CC Taxidermia.
