Nice thought, however the soundtrack is still in print.

Someone else must have the rights for Canada, as Alliance does for Traffic and presumably TVA does for the Malle and Fists in the Pocket in Quebec. Regardless, I'm certain it will be stocked in at least one small Vancouver record store.benm wrote:does anyone care to shed some light on why image will not allow the complete mr. arkadin into canada?
i mean they're already jerks for having such a high MSRP for canada (as compared to the states) for criterion releases but now to say it will be available in canada seems just downright unfair.

Strictly speaking, this probably belongs in the Criterion 2006 thread, but I figured it would be better to let that one lie!
As far as I can tell, the following titles have been either officially announced or strongly hinted at for 2006.
REISSUES
Seven Samurai
Yojimbo
Sanjuro
Amarcord
Playtime
plus the AWOL Grey Gardens briefly announced for May?
NEW
Border Radio
Spirit of the Beehive
Jigoku
She's Gotta Have It (if we connect the various dots)
BOX SET
Tati - a bit of a wild card, this. At the least inspiring level, this could just be the new Playtime plus the old M Hulot's Holiday and Mon Oncle (yawn). At the most, this could entail improved editions of those two titles, plus Jour de Fete and Trafic (and maybe even Parade), which would add four or five titles to the list above.
There are only four months left, and December has traditionally been lower-key, so this might just about be the full schedule. If you figure in any Eclipse titles (Jigoku could be one, but none of the other titles would seem to fit), then this would presumably mean a stepping up of the number of releases per month (at last!).

CRITERION BETTER FUCKING RELEASE SHE'S GOTTA HAVE IT! THAT FILM BETTER BE SITTING ON MY SHELF BEFORE FUCKING CHRISTMAS OR I'M GOING TO PLAY THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME WITH MULVANEY! MOTHER FUCKER!
Sorry, but I really want them to release the film. Last I heard Island was a Universal property, it just has to be in the works.

It is indeed looking very reissue-heavy.denti alligator wrote:Well, there have to be more than 4 new releases, right? So I expect a huge number of titles for September through December, which is not good for the credit cards and me.
Of course, the other possibility is that some of the 'announced' titles will be no-shows held over till next year, but let's not think about that. . .

I just recieved an email from Criterion:
See? They can be helpful and revealing. Great news about that boxed set.In September, we will be releasing every film ever made and even some films from the future in a big fucking boxed set, featuring audio commentaries on each film by the director, regardless of them being dead. Now fuck off, you cunt and tell your buddies at your precious forum. Fucking dickhead.

I seriously doubt we'll see all six of those reissues in 2006. GREY GARDENS seems like a sure thing. But I'm betting we'll only get one of the Kurosawas (my guess is SEVEN SAMURAI, in December). At the pace so far, I wouldn't consider PLAYTIME or AMARCORD locks, either.
I think we'll see three new releases per month Sept-Nov, including one more boxed set.
And, believe it or not, I think we'll see Eclipse debut in October!
