Re: BD 271 Son of The White Mare
Looks like I have to double dip after getting Arbelos’ disc
I really hope Jancovics’ final feature, The Tragedy of Man, will get an HD release. I have the Hungarian DVD

Re: BD 271 Son of The White Mare
I stand corrected--this is pretty much replicating the Arbelos package.
And to post something constructive, this is a good concept album inspired by the film

I'm glad I don't have to double dip on it, I would have immediately plopped down more money for a commentary or another short film.

Re: BD 271 Son of The White Mare
this is not on the Arbelos disc, correct?
as said elsewhere I like LEs and this has good art as expected. will get this, though I do wish they'd gotten another commentary or really anything else scholarly about the film to differentiate it from the Arbelos. interesting since Eureka has done such an amazing bang for your buck job this year with extras...which this is obviously still loaded withThe Director Talks – featurette with Jankovics produced by the Hungarian National Film Archive

Re: BD 271 Son of The White Mare
I have a Hungarian Blu-Ray that was released back in 2013, but it looks like its possibly OOP now or certainly very difficult to import. It would have been nice if Eureka got it as well as it's film that I think would really benefit from some extras and those on the Hungarian Blu aren't English-friendly.
Correct, but I think it's this video that is on the National Film Archive's YouTube channel. It's certainly not enough to make me double dip over the Arbelos but hopefully it does well enough to make Eureka release The Tragedy of Man or more animation full stop for that matter.ryannichols7 wrote: ↑Tue Sep 06, 2022 11:56 amthis is not on the Arbelos disc, correct?

Re: BD 271 Son of The White Mare
definitely, just a nice treat for being late to the party on picking this up. I really do hope they release Tragedy of Man, and it looks like Hungary restored Song of the Miraculous Hind as well - would make a great twofer edition for MOC. Hungary has been one of the best countries in regards to film restoration and preservation, and I just hope to see the anglo labels take full advantage of this - I've enjoyed every single movie from Hungary I've seen so far!Calvin wrote: ↑Tue Sep 06, 2022 12:52 pmCorrect, but I think it's this video that is on the National Film Archive's YouTube channel.

Did David Mackenzie encode the Arbelos release? Will he encode this one?
