While they're at it, why not American Chronicles too.

You guys like messing about.

Lost Highway is on sale (for over 5 years!) at Amazon.de for 9.90 euros (US$13). I know shipping is expensive but you could buy a load and sell them on or shove Downfall (2 disc version) in your basket to ease the pain of the high shipping.

I don't believe any real fan of Lost Highway can wait and wait and wait.

Daniel, I don't think you understand what we're asking...

The original release that came out in 2000 costs 19.99 euros, and the new release that came out earlier this month is 9.90 euros (see links above). Hence the question: any difference between the two?

10 euros?

The technical information (maybe no 5min interview) is exactly the same:

Infos zu diesem Titel
• Sprachen: Deutsch (Dolby Digital 5.1) Englisch (Dolby Digital 5.1)
• Untertitel: Deutsch, Englisch
• Bildformat: 16:9, 2.35:1
• Dolby, Surround Sound, PAL
• Laufzeit: 135 Minuten


Das ist es.

Handy review link posted over at the International Forum here

Doesn't really look like a review to me, but it said this (translated with Altavista):so I think it sounds similar to the expensive release for extra features.

Well, Lost Highway is my favorite Lynch film. And I'll wait for the DVD with teh approved Lynch transfer (that he's already done).

I'm a fan, and I can wait and wait. :)

yes that too....i've never even seen that one :(

I'm a fan of Lost Highway as well, but I aint interested in getting an open region player. There just arent that many movies in other regions that arent already in R1 that interest me...LH will come to R1 in due time..until then, I have:

Blue Velvet
Mulholland Drive
Firewalk With Me
Wild at Heart

to warp my wittle mind.... :nopanic:

I have the original LOST HIGHWAY DVD release (in the uber-retarded Super Jewel case that broke somewhere over the Atlantic) and the English Audio IS out of sync...

In a weird way it actually kinda makes the film more creepy. :)

Sorry, no Region 1 news but it looks like Region 2 is getting a nice new version of Lost Highway:

Can the Region 1 be far behind? Probably. :(

on a related note, david foster wallace wrote an interesting article which was originally published in esquire and subsequently published in his essay collection "a supposedly fun thing i'll never do again". this is a pretty entertaining read about dl in general and the filming of lost highway specifically.

Is this new edition still PAL?

Damn. I am so buying that. When is the release date?

I'd say the chances of that is about 100%.

that sucks that Industrial Symphony No.1 couldnt be included too.

It makes absolutely no sense for IS#1 to be included with Lost Highway. None. Wild at Heart, I can see the logic why it might have been included with it because Cage and Dern are in IS#1, but why on earth would a studio thing "Hey, lets release this completely unrelated with with Lost Highway!?"

Don't get me wrong, it'll be cool if/when IS#1 finally comes to DVD, I just can't see why a marketing department would ever release it with an unrelated feature.

Let's just hope that IS#1 makes it to DVD in some form.

Let's just hope that a new edition of Lost Highway comes to Region 1.

Would it be woth waiting for this to happen or is it worth picking up this Region 2 version??

No forced French subs, right? What about in the bonus features?

Not only the subs will not be forced but this will be a print that Marin Karmitz and Co. have restored frame-by-frame. The fact that this will be a Hi-Def-sourced print of the film also should appeal to quite a few. With this said, Yes this should be the version to get as MK2 are easily one of the few studios to outperform Criterion when it comes to "classic" films.

Ciao,
Pro-B

Never was a big fan, but I have to thank the film and Lynch for turning me on to Rammstein-one of my favorite bands ever!

i dont care if it makes no sense. the fact that they wanted to include it, but ultimately couldnt, sucks.

Absolutely!!...you can add Wild Side and the Eureka (Masters Of Cinema) labels to that list also.

is there any news of an R1 release in the near future?

A bit off-topic....and maybe I'm blind...but this looked fucking awesome in HD-Lite on UHD last night. I archived it! :thumbsup:

Maybe lynch will put it out himself?

You mean an R1 Widescreen release. There's already an R1 P&S release.

I'd pick up the WS version, probably. VERY strange movie, but worth a revisit.

Not possible. He doesn't own the rights to it.

I wish I could say this has a release date in the USA, but I can't. Fans patience has been tested, thank god for the other regions this has been released in. This needs to be released, a must own film for any Lynch fan or dvd collector.

I saw that as well, WOW! :thumbsup:

Don't have HD-lite. I would love to see this and appreciate in Hi-Definition. I bet it would knock me off my seat, it would look that sweet.

Was this an answer to the previous post (does Eraserhead have chapter stops?) or to the thread title (Lost Highway really needs to come out)???

LOST HIGHWAY aired on the Universal High Definition channel this past week and it looked great. Original aspect ratio. Picture was gorgeous. Hopefully the DVD won't be too far off.

Drool, drool...Someone posted here a while back that Lynch actually has finished supervising a transfer of this, and the only thing holding up is rights.

Great soundtrack to this movie. Smashing Pumpkins, NIN, Manson, etc...

"man sieht ihn um die Kirche schleichen...seit einem Jahr ist er allein.."

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRammstein/und die Sonne scheeiiiiiiiiint

Damnit I want this in my collection now :mad:

Me to, I own region 2 & 4, but I want a Lynch approved region 1 dvd.

Subversive Cinema will be releasing a new Lynch DVD, according to Fangoria.com:



What do you think -- could it possibly be LOST HIGHWAY? Please, let it be so... :)
