Criterion Newsletter: Clues and More, Volume Four

That seems to be the most obvious one.

Rivette's Gang of Fish!

[Roscoe]

As predicted in last year's drawing, the boy carrying the Motorcycle. RUMBLE FISH. Interesting. I wonder how it holds up.

[tenia]

Wild Side will release a Rumble Fish BD sourced from a new 4K restoration in February, so at least material that should be good seems available.

Wet Side Story?

[ianungstad]

Haven't seen Rumble Fish in ages. It will be interesting to revisit the film. It makes me wonder if Criterion is putting out that new cut of The Cotton Club that Coppola has in the works.

[DeprongMori]

Definitely Rumble Fish. Eureka has already released it as part of their Masters of Cinema series. The transfer looks absolutely gorgeous. As to the film, it is a tremendously well done film for what it is intended to be -- a philosophical "art film for teenagers." I quite enjoyed it.

[domino harvey]

It's a great film but it's doubtful I'll double-dip from the MOC

[movielocke]

So what's the chances of getting tucker and / or Dracula then?

[The Narrator Returns]

Tucker in the right AR would be an absolute dream. Dracula already has a loaded edition from Sony, so that's doubtful.

[domino harvey]

Tucker is Warners by way of Paramount, so while it might be possible, I would bet a year's salary against it happening. Sony will never let go of Bram Stoker's Dracula (Rumble Fish is Universal)

[jazzo]

I believe I'm shitting my wife's pants, and my own on this one. Rumble Fish was, for both of us, relationship litmus test stuff, like After Hours, Miracle Mile and Something Wild (Demme's). Luckily we found each other.

Wet Side Story?

That's what I thought at first.

[jwo17]

Here's to hoping this paves the way for a release of The Rain People. Now that the gates to Warner have been pried open, I can't see them holding onto this WAC title if Criterion came a knocking.

[EddieLarkin]

I would be shocked if this wasn't a new transfer, and thus double dip worthy over the MoC (Svet, for once, called that one right).

[AfterTheRain]

Tucker is Warners by way of Paramount, so while it might be possible, I would bet a year's salary against it happening. Sony will never let go of Bram Stoker's Dracula (Rumble Fish is Universal)

Besides, Sony ported over the Criterion commentary when they released the remastered Blu-ray about a year or so ago.

[lacritfan]

They should've colored them blue and red.

Taipei Story

Bravo.

[Ribs]

This is one of the better clues/drawings in recent memory.

[mfunk9786]

I was sitting here refreshing and staring at it, thinking I might finally be the first to guess it, but I was still so far off of what the actual solution was.

[movielocke]

Greed?

[mfunk9786]

This is about the fastest I've ever wanted to lock this thread. The answer is obviously Taipei Story
