Criterion & Eclipse Cover Art & Packaging Babble-on Vol. 7

[Mr.DarjeelingLimited]

The art for West Indies is spectacular art for a spectacular film.

They should’ve used the booklet cover for IWJAA it fits the film way better and looks great.

Hairspray and Desperate Living are good.

Why Trainspotting gets 2nd printing? Was something wrong with the original one? Thanks!

The licensor recently changed from Paramount to Sony.

Great, thanks for clarifying!

[Matt]

A few reasons. The licensor changed from Miramax to Sony Pictures Classics, so it required changing the packaging and on-screen titles. Plus some playback issues as well as some encoding issues.

I really like Sister Hyde's The Secret Agent cover. Much better than the boring MUBI UK art.

Sister Hyde has an exceptional track record at this point. Her After Hours artwork is probably going to wind up in a lot of dorm rooms for years.

"un film de Richard Linklater" is almost too cute. Good cover though!

I really like the Leos Carax box/cover art. Feels contemporary but also somewhat vintage late-'50s early-'60s. I wasn't familiar with Cecilia Carlstedt's work, but she's done some fashion illustration that's not too far off from that of David Downton, who did all the Max Ophuls covers.
