The picture is showing the old version.

Amazon still lists the upgraded version, so I'm assuming that the original release is now OOP.

Picked up Mr. Arkadin for 19.99. Good stuff.

I wish Criterion would snap up some more of Welles' public domain stuff. I need a new copy of The Trial. And if they could wrangle Chimes After Midnight out of its legal troubles, that'd be much appreciated.

I picked up Eric Rohmer's Six Moral Tales for $46.99, which is the best price I've seen since the B1G1 Criterion sale at DD a while back.

Thanks, OP. I ordered Salesman (along with some 3 for $10 MGM titles, in order to qualify for free shipping,)
which was one of the few Criterion titles not included in the recent B1G1F sale at DD.

Ugetsu is a good deal for $18.99 considering that neither DD or DVD Planet carry it. Too bad I already own the three titles that are 60% off.

I can't recommend enough Elevator to the Gallows (one of my all-time favorite films) & Pickup on South Street (A Richard Widmark great) for $15.99 each, those are two hell of a buys.

The Red Balloon MSRP is $14.95. It's regularly $9.98 at DVD Planet (and that's not even during the 20% sale).

Night & Fog is the same, $14.95 MSRP, regularly $9.95 at DVD Planet.
