The latest estimate is July, 2004.
It appears that Koch Lorber is having trouble getting off the ground. Not only did they miss the original street date for La Dolce vita by a mile, but in their first year of operation, I'm only aware of one DVD that they've released (The Ballad of Bering Strait, in May). Their website hasn't been updated in months.
Doesn't bode well.

I know they have a few releases due out in January including Patrice Chereau's INTIMACY and Diane Kurys' CHILDREN OF THE CENTURY starring Juliette Binoche. Both of these releases are supposed to be anamorphic. Koch Lorber has also decided to release the uncut, French theatrical version of "CHILDREN" instead of the shorter version that was released in the US. Apparently they're getting a few things right...

I’m sure the companies behind the release of the R2UK and Italian Sp Ed releases would dispute that.

There's a beautiful Region 2 PAL disc available in Italy, for those who are region-free.

Personally, I'm underwhelmed by their upcoming releases, and wonder if they have a viable business plan. To my mind, this puts even more pressure on their eventual La Dolce vita release to be "definitive," to attract some attention to the label (certainly they've been keeping a very low profile so far).
