Carl Theodor Dreyer's The Passion of Joan of Arc (and more)!
From Blu-ray.com:
French distributors Gaumont have announced that they have secured funding to restore 270 films from their catalog during the next four years. The restorations will have a minimum quality of at least 2K. Amongst the films considered for restoration are such classics as Jean Renoir's Toni (1935), Henri-Georges Clouzot's The Murderer Lives at Number 21 (1942), and Carl Theodor Dreyer's The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928).
The Passion of Joan of Arc should be a first day purchase from me.

Great news. I thought Joan of Arc was going to come out from Criterion sooner rather than later but likely they will wait for this restoration.
