I certainly hope it’s de Palma. If so, Arrow will have really comprehensively covered much of his career. I recall Greetings and especially Hi Mom as remarkable works.Calvin wrote:Anthony Nield recently tweeted about "going over the booklet content for a 2018 Arrow release that'll see much-needed restorations for three early works by a major filmmaker."
One possibility that would fit is an Early De Palma set. Last night a poster at Blu-Ray.com commented that he had "overheard a few people talking about an Early De Palma set coming. GREETINGS, HI MOM! and WEDDING PARTY. No GET TO KNOW YOUR RABBIT. Don't know if DIONYSUS is included."
If that's inaccurate, I suppose other possibilities would be Paul Verhoeven, Michael Haneke, or Peter Jackson.
I was hugely impressed by their releases of Obsession, The Fury, Carrie, Sisters and Raising Cain. Blow Out equalled the excellent Criterion edition (although minus the excellent Murder a la Mod) although Dressed to Kill was outdone by Criterion getting a fresh remaster and Phanton of Paradise had a colour controversy specific to Fox remaster jobs.
Arrow have several times over the years denied working on Greetings and Hi Mom, but they are pretty flexible and often release films they have “no plans for at the moment” and obviously things like rights and materials are so subject to change.
