If it keeps the commentary from the Criterion, I'll get it, but its hard to get excited about yet another Criterion release from Masters of Cinema.

It's easy for me when it's a title Criterion hasn't bothered to upgrade yetWhat A Disgrace wrote:If it keeps the commentary from the Criterion, I'll get it, but its hard to get excited about yet another Criterion release from Masters of Cinema.

Absolutely. That's why I'm less intrigued by Seconds, because I already bought the Criterion.
Curious about the extras though.

Be great if they could conjure up the filmed interview at London's NFT in the 70s with JF in both spikey and charming mode in front of an earnest beard-stroking coven of cinephiles.tenia wrote:Absolutely. That's why I'm less intrigued by Seconds, because I already bought the Criterion.

Re: BD 126 The Naked Prey
Chris's review of the Criterion wrote:Finally, we get a 28-page booklet, containing an essay by Michael Atkinson, which briefly covers Wilde’s directing career as well as a brief analysis of the film. Also included is a segment from a 1970 issue of “Films and Filming” containing an interview with Wilde, who talks about his move to directing and offers some insight into his films, though there is only brief mention of The Naked Prey.

I used to have a DVD of Disney's Peter Pan that advertised:swo17 wrote:I'll bet there are loads of other special features though that they just haven't advertised:

"Character artwork on the disc!"
Meaning that the actual DVD (the disc) had the same stupid image of Peter Pan that the front cover had.
------
Criterion booklet is 29 pages btw (30 if you go by MoC's system of counting the back cover as a page).

As with many of their other titles that they've newly announced (recent example being Medium Cool) extras aren't confirmed until later down the line, sometimes not even 'til a month or so beforehand.swo17 wrote:I'll bet there are loads of other special features though that they just haven't advertised:

It's even better in motion. A fabulous presentation with a fascinating documentary to accompany it. Recommended unreservedly unless you're squeamish about faked human on human violence or real animal on animal violence.
And there's also stock footage of elephants being shot which some might not like.

Re: BD 126 The Naked Prey
...and the extra in this case is a substantial one: Sheldon Hall's account of the film's decidedly troubled production is absolutely riveting.rapta wrote:As with many of their other titles that they've newly announced (recent example being Medium Cool) extras aren't confirmed until later down the line, sometimes not even 'til a month or so beforehand.
