Criterion Newsletter: Clues and More, Volume Four

[J M Powell]

Complete "Seinfeld" box set confirmed!!!

[fdm]

Wouldn't mind Long Strange Trip making it to blu-ray... but that's probably just me.

[domino harvey]

Why does no one think this is just the Dead? That's what people call the band...

[swo17]

The male symbol?

[domino harvey]

Oh wow, totally missed that. Okay, fair enough

[Yaanu]

Obviously, a reference to the 1951 women's wrestling/noir crime film Racket Girls.

[mfunk9786]

Or Big Love, maybe

[for posterity: this was a joke]

[Ribs]

Women in Love?

[bakofalltrades]

Women in Love?

Was just about to comment the same.

[yoshimori]

I never know these, even the in-retrospect-obvious ones, but ... Women in Love?

Edit: Ha! That's what happens when I search to see whether it's already been released!

[JayAlmighty]

Perhaps Amour?

[Clarence]

Loves of a Blonde?

[jedgeco]

I don't have any guess, but the perspective and depth of field seem unusually complicated for a newsletter clue.

[mfunk9786]

Loves of a Blonde?

This seems like the best guess thusfar.

[yoshimori]

Loves of a Blonde?

This is better, I think. Drats, another one I didn't get.

I feel like it’s meant to show it’s indoors, for whatever reason.

Dammit, I guessed it as soon as I saw it and still wasn't fast enough. It's Women in Love. For people who don't know tennis, "love" means zero points. Note the prominent score of 0-0. There's a recent article in the NYT about the restoration showing at Metrograph in NYC.

Uh, no, your first guess was obviously right. It's already been rumored that Criterion have the rights.

I think it's Loves of a Blonde. Not filling in a pretty large hairdo seems like the final piece of the puzzle.

Or it's actually the first double-clue, maybe? I can't believe I'm saying that.

[FrauBlucher]

Loves of a Blonde?

When was the last time a newsletter clue was for an upgrade? Not one that was OOP like Silence of the Lambs.

[mfunk9786]

They used to do it all the time, but they'd tint it blue.

[Cinephrenic]

Women in Love

[Graphist]

It looks like Ken Russell’s Women In Love will be joining the collection.

[danieltiger]

Clearly it's for Rocky. Sly Stallone finally comes to the collection!
