Criterion Newsletter (Part 2)

The HVE disc is excellent. It will be interesting to see what supplements are added to justify the upgrade.

[Murdoch]

The HVE is also OOP.

[triodelover]

That would be wonderful!

My favorite yakuza film. Let's hope for a BD with a lossless audio track because the Takemitsu score is stunning and the segue at the end from Takemitsu's music to Dame Janet Baker singing Purcell's When I am Laid in Earth is one of the most sublime musical moments in film.

Is this some kind of a hint?

Could mean Santa's on his way?

THE HOLLY AND THE IVY (1952) ?

[Cinephrenic]

Holly Hunter in Broadcast News. Which isn't gnus to us.

[swo17]

It's obviously a Christmas-themed flux capacitor!

[TJS]

Any chance this is Suddenly, Last Summer?

I think the image is named Wacky Holly?

[fiddlesticks]

How about Breakfast at Tiffany's?

Have you seen Jason Polan’s second annual wacky New Year’s drawing yet? See how many upcoming 2011 titles you can spot!

Discussion and clue deciphering took place here.

I feel mildly cheated that there wasn't a new clue in the newsletter.

Newsletter, more like oldsletter, amirite?

a pre-newsletter clue from FB:

Tomorrow's newsletter has a wacky animal more mystical than any that have come before it. Are you signed up?

are they breaking into animation with The Last Unicorn?

[souvenir]

are they breaking into animation with The Last Unicorn?

Probably not since Lions Gate is releasing The Last Unicorn on Blu-ray next week.

[Jeff]

I'm guessing I Married a Witch.

[ianungstad]

I would love to see a clue indicating a special edition of Jason and the Argonauts was on the way. Probably not ever going to happen. I wish Sony/Columbia would let Criterion have the title. They have several laser disc supplements that haven't seen the light of day since.

EDIT: If it's a Unicorn, then it will probably be for Malle's Black Moon.

Be still, my beating heart

[ianungstad]

Maybe they are finally going to release Island of Lost Souls? (One could hope)

It'd be about time! I've been looking forward to this one since talk of it in the collection surfaced.

This was such a major part of my childhood that I would be over the moon if this were legitimately announced. I know you're kidding, but...
