Fortunately, not the dorkiness or social awkwardness. And not the snaggletooth.

I don't believe Le Samourai is with Studiocanal. The Criterion dvd is still very much in print, unlike the other Melvilles in the collection. The delay almost certainly has to do with the lack of a quality transfer to use for a new blu-ray. A new HD master was created some years back in France and was completely butchered in the same way that the HD transfers for Earrings of Madame De... and Children of Paradise were butchered. I think Criterion learned their lesson and passed on the opportunity to release it until something better comes along.

In for Ghost World and Othello.
Its funny, during various points every month I find myself looking forward to the 15th for Criterion announcements.

With all the streaming services available, there's no point in blind-buying any movie or music. Watch it first and then see if it's worth owning. Why take the chance when you don't have to?

Love Ghost World. Great news, but a little sparce in extras. Why couldn't Buscemi and ScarJo contribute? Wasted opportunity...

I think you'll enjoy it, but don't know to what degree and if it'll have replay value to you.

If I come across it while flipping channels, I'll stop and watch it - even if it's already half-way in. But that doesn't mean it's worth owning. It's only worth owning if I'm willing to go out of my way and put the disc in the player and watch the movie from beginning to end. For me - there are 2 types of replay value... one for TV and one for disc. Only that latter makes it worth owning.

Looks like Othello and maybe Good Morning for me.

Pretty impressive month. I've been holding off on Good Morning for the longest time. Glad to see my patience finally paying off.

My review of The Man Who Fell to Earth was delayed, but here it finally is with screencap comparisons that I think are pretty damning for Studio Canal.
