You took the words right out of my mouth. I don't like Michael Moore but nothing he's done compares to Polanski. If a rapist can have multiple films in the Criterion collection I suppose a blowhard could have one.

you have to separate the art from the artist. If I didn't I probably wouldn't watch many movies at all because of the actors or director.

I actually guessed two right. Yay!
...
Anyways, I'll probably get all of these - though I'm most excited for The Kid with a Bike (my favorite movie of the year so far) and Chronicle of a Summer, since I don't own either on DVD.
Edit: Just realized that it's not the Imamura Ballad of Narayama, which actually makes me more excited for it.

This is from IMDb:
The film was shot by Elia Kazan at the aspect ratio of 1.37:1. It was originally offered to 20th Century Fox by Kazan, but was turned down by Darryl F. Zanuck because the film was shot in black & white and in the academy ratio of 1.37. Fox at the time was big into Cinemascope wide screen pictures. The film may have been exhibited in a few theaters at 1.66 or even 1.85, but was shot, and exhibited, in 1954, at 1.37:1.

On the Waterfront received a 4k restoration, so it should look fantastic. It appears that all of the DVD extras have been ported over.

25th Hour is probably still coming - but as with other "unofficially unannounced forever ago" titles like Y Tu Mama Tambien and Badlands, it's impossible to say when exactly. It may be announced next month or it may not be announced for another year or more.

I'm still waiting for my dream announcement for the release of Sorcerer via CC. Fuck. What'd I'd love to see w/ CC on that film. Also..they have the original so the remake would be a nice addition to their collection just for that purpose alone.

Yeah all of their 2 disc titles are $50. I think the only exception is Children of Paradise.
