I believe the Seven Samurai, Yojimbo and Sanjuro re-release add featured a samurai figure.

God, hope not - the crews here earned a lot of dosh from that dead duck - may it RIP nevertheless...

Come on, folks - this one's easy! "Fire and Rain" is James Taylor's signature song and the car is the souped-up '55 Chevy from Two-Lane Blacktop .

I'm so glad that's settled. I thought we'd never know what that dadblasted car was hinting at.

Two Lane has been getting some serious releases so would CC really tackle it?

I won't be selling my Anchor Bay editiom of Two-Lane until I know for certain that the Criterion will also have the optional 5.1, which I doubt it will - their The Man Who Fell to Earth dropped the 5.1 and DTS tracks.

I'd guess it's pretty unlikely unless Monte Hellman himself insists on it

Does anyone know for certain that Warner doesn't own THE MERRY WIDOW?

Love Me Tonight is already available on a fine Kino disc. The Love Parade may be the better answer, since it was Macdonald's first, but I tend not to expect such early stuff from Criterion (what next, silent films?). Let's hope for both!
