Not a fan of the Solaris and Diabolique covers, but that won't stop me from the double-dips. Surprised to see Smiles of a Summer Night before the more famous and already confirmed Wild Strawberries, though it is a welcome addition. Figured we were due for another Chaplin. Wasn't a big fan of Fat Girl, though I have the DVD. I'll skip Something Wild too. Not sure yet about Pale Flower. Glad I sold my OOP DVD for a decent profit before the announcement.

I'm a fan of Something Wild and will definitely get the BD.
However, I practically went through the roof when I saw the (fake) announcement for Jean de Florette/Manon of the Spring. That would have been a dream come true.

You would think that Criterion would release real French classics on blu-ray already, instead of pretentious films that don't have a high rewatchable factor. Basically, they should see what old films France releases on blu-ray, and follow their lead.

Don't care for that Solaris cover.

Solid month. I love seeing Solaris on Blu-ray, I'd buy it if it was wrapped in a paper bag. Kinda surprised at Fat Girl. To me, it seems like Criterion will now release anything on Blu-ray rather than being selective.

Probably in for Diabolique. I saw Something Wild about 10 years ago and might buy that one. Haven't seen the others although Pale Flowers looks interesting.

Beyond thrilled about "Something Wild". Such a fantastic little film. And I'm loving that cover.




I liked toddly's list better.
