Wow. Nice to finally get this on Blu-Ray. It was on Kanopy for a time. It never even gets 35mm screenings. A bit rough around the edges, especially when compared to Wedding Banquet and Eat, Drink, but miles ahead of the schlock he makes now.

You can finally pre-order Vive L'Amour.

Has anyone besides me not recieved emails from them? No response when I asked about when the pre-order link would be posted, no email confirmation for my order, and no reply to email asking for confirmation. I've checked my spam folder, of course.

You mean Film Movement has the rights to FMC. Either way, excellent news as the film is in dire need of a proper home video presentation. I wonder if the BFI will upgrade their release or if the UK license has changed hands again. Let's hope the eventual US disc is not a disappointment like Center Stage was.

And the two Samurai Wolf movies put together barely make the runtime of a modern movie....

Excellent news! I know Oasis tends to be the popular favorite, but I’ve always found Peppermint Candy his most effective work, taking what would normally be a winky gimmick and treating it as an important vehicle for uncovering humanistic mystery

Love this film! The Blu-ray edition has completely snuck up on me. The best deal for this film seems to be currently at Deepdiscount with their 10% off coupon "SHARKIE". Can't wait for my copy to arrive!

FM have added five new Japanese titles to their website: Wolves, Pigs and Men & Violent Panic: The Big Crash (both Kinji Fukasaku), and Red Peony Gambler (aka Hibotan Bakuto) (1968), Red Peony Gambler: Gambler's Obligation (1968), and Red Peony Gambler: Flower Cards Match (1969).

Does Film Movement have a good track record when it comes to encoding? I know upthread it was mentioned that their Hana-bi beats Third Window’s.

I’m debating whether to see Farewell My Concubine at my local rep theater, where projection and sound quality is just meh: Worse than a competently-encoded 1080p Blu-ray at home but definitely better than the macroblocking on either Curzon or Criterion’s Three Colors (UHD).
