Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Cure coming from France's MK2 with Eng. subs and other releases!
For those of you who wanted Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Cure, but didn't want to pay the high Japanese price it looks like MK2 will be releasing this on September 4th this year with an Anamorphic transfer and Eng. subs. I can't recomend this movie enough, it's a really great film. Here is the link.

Goodbye South, Goodbye
9/4 see's the release of Hou Hsiao-Hsien's "Goodbye South, Goodbye". It's anamorphic with subs. I think I'll have to upgrade my Fox Lorber version now.

Jonathan Nossiter's Sunday
I'm not familiar with this, but it doesn't appear to be available from the US. Anamorphic with no Eng subs needed due to it being in. English. Comes out on 9/4/02.

I don't know, but that's a good question, I didn't even think about it. I think I'll wait til someone picks it up and confirms they are removable.

Are all of these PAL releases?

A reliable source on the CriterionDVD boards says that Criterion will be releasing Cure later this year. So you may want to hold off on the MK2 edition a couple of months just to see what Criterion (may) have to offer.

so am I the only one who's turned off by the idea of PAL speedup? I haven't experienced it yet, but I'm pretty attentive to audio and it sounds like it would bug me. That's the main reason I haven't gone PAL yet.
Criterion CURE would rock the house!

DVD Talk Gold Edition
Has MK2 announced what the supplements will be on the Cure DVD?
It seems to me that the vast majority of people who are "turned off" by PAL speedup are precisely the ones who have never experienced it. I can't tell the differences, and chances are, neither could you. Popular music has routinely sped up or slowed down tapes. For instance, Miles Davis' Kind of Blue was sped up on vinyl (not intentionally: the tape machine it was recorded on was defective, the tape moved too slowly during the recording). For the re-mastered CD release the pitch/speed was returned to it's original form. 99.99999% of the record buying public didn't have a clue that the vinyl they had been buying for 35+ years was at the wrong pitch.
But tell people about PAL speedup, and suddenly everyone's an expert. I'll grant that a) people with perfect pitch b) people with good relative pitch who have both the PAL & NTSC version in their machines for a serious A/B comparison can tell the difference. But realistically speaking only people with perfect pitch would potentially be bothered by it. The rest is pure imagination.
