If it is Brand Upon the Brain, it sets up the opportunity for some interesting alternative audio tracks, with some of the celebs who have provided narrations.
I'd be just as interested though in a collection of Maddin's shorts ala "by Brakage".

Hmm...Gary Tooze posts on criterionforum.org and that blurb looks like it was just culled from the forthcoming list there. Didn't he get a bunch of slack for announcing Shanghai Express as a 2008 title, as well as listing Kurosawa and Lubitsch titles that had already been solicited?

'WISEBLOOD' !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Plus; can't wait to finally throw out my old betamax of 'Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence'!
Haven't seen 'Insignificance' since it was in theatres. I vaguely remember liking it, though not as much as 'Track 29' - I gotta think that would be a better choice.
Still no news of Criterion issuing Bly-Rays, though, huh? Bummer.
