Why did they even bother picking those UHD rights up if they weren't going to keep them in print for more than, what, 3 or 4 years?
This was what they said this afternoon...
We're not discussing it in public, but it should be pretty obvious whose choice it was.

While I'm certainly amenable to the politics of this one, I remember it being a slog. Granted, that was roughly 18 years ago.

Oof, a movie I loved as a kid that does not hold up well in adulthood. Even if it was a good film, though, their choices for 4Ks continue to baffle

since it's a blind buy for me I'd definitely much rather pay Kino's price of course. hoping they can port the Daniel Kremer commentary or get someone equally inticing for their inevitable track - I've only heard his commentary on The Desperate Hours but enjoyed it a good bit

as a Jack Lemmon fan I've always wanted to see the movie, and some key recommendations have had it on my radar. definitely looking forward

My write up from the 70s List

Save the Tiger (John G. Avildsen 1973) I became uneasy as the film unraveled, as this looked like your garden variety mid-life crisis mope-a-thon, but Jack Lemmon (in a justly Oscar-winning role) brings a strong lived-in despair too convincing to be reduced to mere melodramatic tics or narrative points. This is a film that understands something elemental about aging, the idea that the world we felt comfortable in has passed and what's left in its wake is not only different, but hostile to what we knew and loved (and even the ignorance is a kind of hostility, a reflection of the perceived importance of our beloved era). There's a great moment early on: Lemmon joylessly prepares for the day by taking a shower, getting dressed, reading his paper, and at the end of this ritual he turns on the stereo to listen to some music and a look of peace creeps into his face, only to be immediately crumbled away by his wife's brusque dismissal of his music. It's a wonderfully observed moment and the film is filled with them.

I think some of these were actually released even more recently than that

Since these are all Criterion titles, I think we can guess what comes next
Last Year At Marienbad isn't on that list but is playing on the channel beginning with the wacky C & no Kino i.d. Looks like it's just their blu-ray encode, but it is leaving at the end of the month. If Criterion is resurrecting laserdisc titles, they're probably also would do more recent titles that they've already done work on, but would only have to upgrade the film itself to 4k. Maybe Kino got a short term limited license for the period of time that Criterion knew it already had enough to work on.

Kino’s recent OOP list was limited to MGM titles (Last Year at Marienbad is StudioCanal), so the license likely expired, and they were simply outbid by Criterion on the renewal.

I wouldn’t make much of Criterion streaming a title for which Kino have the physical rights. They’ve done this regularly since the Channel’s inception. Contempt (not KL but a OOP CC title) has also streamed on the Channel at various times.

I'm surprised Save The Tiger is only a blu-ray, considering it's a 4K restoration of a film for which Jack Lemmon won a Best Actor Oscar.

Since they are releasing films from Imprint, it would be nice if they could also get
I Never Sang for My Father, a film that I like quite a bit.
