Does netflix carry the Criterion Life Of Brian DVD?

I noticed that the cover art is for the Anchor Bay release, but I know that Netflix carry almost all the in-print criterions

Don't take this as gospel, but I believe that Netflix only has Criterions for movies that aren't available in any other way.

Notice that 'Armageddon', 'The Rock', 'Rushmore', and 'Life of Brian' are all the non-Criterion versions. Also, 'Brazil', 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas', and 'Time Bandits' (which appears to be the original one-disc Anchor Bay).

they do have some, not all though... Silence of the Lambs, RoboCop, ect... All Criterion, even though in the title they are not labeled as such, look at the pic they have and they are the correct box for Criterion. I know cause I have netflixed both Silence and Robo and both were...

I rented Life of Brian about a month ago and got the Anchor Bay version.

Interestingly, I also rented Straw Dogs a couple of weeks ago and got the Criterion version, even though NetFlix shows the Anchor Bay cover art, specifically says it's an Anchor Bay disc in the description, and lists the audio as 2.0 (the Criterion is 1.0). Not that I'm complaining . . .

http://netflix.com - they have a search engine, so you can find out for yourself what they have.

Swear to god!

I searched and I didn't notice any studio info. I guess I need to look better.
