Vinegar Syndrome and Their Partner Labels

The other releases for 5 & Dime have been OOP, so I see nothing wrong with releasing this. Never seen it before but it looks to be a great release and I will happily blind buy it.

Oh, it’s a wonderful film for sure. One of Altman’s best-looking works as well, despite being shot in 16mm by Pierre Mignot (who is alive and working, but has never participated in any Altman-related discs, books, or documentaries)

Booklet reveals this was encoded by FiM, which I don’t think was previously announced

I really loved A Prince, and the scant scattering of folks on LB who logged these during a BAM retro last year seem to be fans, so that's all I'm going on. A Prince is on the Channel right now, if you want to sample, and his latest, 7 Walks with Mark Brown is on Hoopla. From what I gather, neither is a significant departure from his other work.

I watched un prince right before leaving for vacation as it was on the "leaving this month" list & I'm very glad I did. I was surpprised by how much I enjoyed it in light of its 5.6/10 on IMDb. I would put it very much in the slow cinema camp and the editing and dry presentation reminded me of Bresson, so it didn't surprise me that it's rating is so low as it's definitely not a crowd pleaser. I can't believe Criterion pulled it from the channel before pride month, I don't recall any promotion for it and the only reason I noticed it was because it was included in the "leaving this month" group and I searched IMDb for it's info. Yet another example of poor curation on the channel. Did anyone catch who is distributing it in the US? It doesn't seem to have a disc release to date.

I was hoping for a Blu-ray too, but Strand already released it on DVD a couple of years ago.

I believe Criterion has picked up a few Strand titles over the years, though I don't recall which titles offhand. This seems to me to be an ideal Janus/Criterion Premieres candidate.
