I think March is most likely to have dual format releases of films already in the collection with only two or three new films being added.
  • Bleeder, featuring a transfer of Nicolas Winding Refn's restored version of the film

    The New World, with new high definition presentations of the 135 minute, 150 minute, and 172 minute cuts of the film

    The Driller Killer, with a new audio commentary by Abel Ferrara, and his short films The Hold Up and Nicky's Film

    All That Heaven Allows (dual format edition) with a new audio introduction by Todd Haynes

    Ali: Fear Eats The Soul (dual format edition) with no new features

    Andrei Rublev (dual format edition) with a new restoration of the 185 minute version, and including the 145 minute American and 205-minute director’s cut, with a new essay by Sean Martin. Possibly featuring Chris Marker's documentary on Tarkovsky's last days, One Day In The Life of Andrei Arsenevitch.

Still hoping for the Tati films. Either in a box set or separately. Really hoping to get the alternate versions of Holiday and Mon Oncle.

That's an awfully long list and you perhaps get one right, if you are lucky. It's easier just to wait.

I second that. This is LONG overdue. A box set would be nice, especially if it included Jour de Fete. And Parade as an extra!

I've gotten one right each month the last two months. Shotgun approach, trying to precisely gauge the number of releases as well as the releases themselves seems like trying to cover the spread and correctly hit the over-under. It's not that bad, three obvious candidates for upgrades (and one in the wrong aspect ratio), five titles that have all been clues or confirmed and a long rumored and delayed box set (and criterion tends to release one box set in the spring of late), so hopefully I'll hit something from that swath of selections.

And it doesn't matter, I don't care if I get all of them or none of them, the whole speculation game is just a weird but enjoyable part of this particular board.

I would like to add SAFE to my prediction. If my memory serves me from past Wexner talks, the titles they mention as getting released, usually get announced on the next one or two 15th after Wexner.

I believe they mentioned that as one they were still in the stages of acquiring, but one that looked likely.

One screwball comedy should finally get updated soon. I'm betting The Lady Eve

I would think Sullivan's Travels would be the safer bet considering the upcoming Arrow release.
