Re: Indications of Incoming Indicator Entertainments
It may well be entirely true. It's perfectly plausible that a film from 1980 might only have had its music rights cleared for theatrical exhibition and possibly TV sales - the video market was a thing by then, but major studios were still being very cautious about getting too involved with it.

Re: Indications of Incoming Indicator Entertainments
Just had a look on imdb and it states there that is has never been released on Video or DVD due to music rights issues - maybe that is where I read it initially.
I saw it at the 1982 Sydney Film Festival where is was the closing night film. It later popped up on TV during the late 1980s/early 1990s. It may have played on Foxtel back in the late 1990s but that is about it.
Anyway, really looking forward to Indicator's Diary of a Mad Housewife.

Re: Indications of Incoming Indicator Entertainments
I got tired of waiting for HOUSEWIFE so I bought the US blu ray (Region A of course). I’d like to think Indicator will include either the extra (deleted) scenes from the TV version or perhaps the modified version in its entirety. This version contains a many interesting scenes. For example: the attempted ‘rape’ scene after the girls go to school, an expanded version of the opening credit sequence (with dialogue intact), psychiatry scenes, etc...

Re: Indications of Incoming Indicator Entertainments
If French extreme cinema is going to be a thing at Indicator, then Man Bites Dog would be a powerful choice. The Tartan license is surely up for grabs by now.

Now that’s a film I’ve not seen or thought of in a long time. It’d be interrsting to see a fresh appraisal of the film, although Man Bites Dog is Belgian.

...and there are no indications of it being an incoming Indicator entertainment.

Re: Indications of Incoming Indicator Entertainments
I would be interested in hearing the story behind Indicator licensing Irreversible - is it a personal favourite of one of the team or did Studio Canal offer it up on a platter and Indicator thought it was too 'big' to turn down?
Given that Indicator are pretty much the only boutique label who have a relationship with Canal, it would be great if Irreversible wasn't the one and only French language title that they got from them. I'd love them to license some Tavernier, Godard, Borowczyk's La Marge, Téchiné's Wild Reeds, Carax's Lovers on the Bridge, and Zulawski's The Most Important Thing: Love

Re: Indications of Incoming Indicator Entertainments
While the man on the left does seem like Yaphet Kotto to me, I don't think it's that film. I've just skimmed through it and I don't see any scenes where Kotto is in that outfit, any scenes that take place at a location with those signs, or any actor who looks like the man on the right.

I’ve not seen the film, but that’s defintely not Yaphet Kotto.

Re: Indications of Incoming Indicator Entertainments
I was thinking it could've been either Browne or Kotto from that film, but since it's clear it's not that film at all, now I'm thinking along the lines of Poitier (rolled-up sleeves, fairly tall, short hair). Could even be a black-and-white film and this is a behind-the-scenes still, so that would cast the net quite wide (50's into 60's, maybe even 70's).
Or it's none of those things and it's something we're not at all expecting (would be a classic Indicator move).

Putney Swope and The People Next Door are two of the August releases as per a one page spread in the latest Little White Lies magazine.

Has anyone seen The People Next Door? I was thinking over the US release but the plot description sounds a bit too “a very special episode”.

Re: Indications of Incoming Indicator Entertainments
I wonder if Indicator will release the TV version of The People Next Door, also directed by David Greene and with an equally (but differently) enticing cast, as a supplement.

The newsletter clue is apparently for The Brothers Rico, which will most likely be one of the films in the fourth Columbia Noir set

Re: Indications of Incoming Indicator Entertainments
Yes, that's one obscure Columbia title I really, really want to see...and Indicator seem like the perfect fit for it. I suppose a suitable master will be the biggest issue?therewillbeblus wrote: ↑Thu May 20, 2021 10:41 amAt first I read that as The Dion Brothers.. one can dream

Tarantino probably has that covered in his personal archives

Re: Indications of Incoming Indicator Entertainments
New announcements are up - Hellfighters, Midway (1975), MacArthur, and Gray Lady Down. These were all frequent (or seemed to be) screeners on British TV in the 1980s, nostalgia value very high (but missed the obvious Father's Day market!).
